All Party Consultation Conference to be held on 28th August in Oldham, UK
In an attempts to forge unity amongst various Kashmiri
groups and organisations actively involved in the Kashmir
campaign in the UK
from both sides of Jammu-Kashmir, an all party consultation conference is being
organised at the end of this month by the UK & Europe chapter of the pro-independence
Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF).
Arrangements are being finalised to host the
conference on 28th August in northern town of Oldham ,
Greater Manchester, and JKLF general secretary, Tehsin Gilani, has written to
nearly 2 dozen heads of UK
based Kashmiri groups for their proposals.
JKLF president, Mr Azmat A Khan, said in a statement
that he is hopeful that Kashmiri activists in the United Kingdom will sign up
to JKLF proposals for meaningful international campaign in support of the
independence movement after a thorough debate and introspection of the current
situation and dilemmas faced by the Kashmiri movement.
“This will be the first of its kind conference where
party heads are being invited to debate JKLF proposals to put forward their own
ideas of how to move forward and to put together resources and manpower to internationalise
the issue of Kashmir in the world media and in the international forum instead
of repeatedly highlighting the issue within the Kashmiri community and the diaspora”,
He added.
JKLF president is to present a written paper to open
the dialogue with all parties at the conference and hopes to build consensus
and forge real unity amongst Kashmiri political, human rights and community
groups who are interested in playing an effective and fruitful role in the near
future.
