Shabir Shah accepts invitation to visit Pakistan

Shujaat Bukhari

SRINAGAR: The Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) headed by Shabir Shah has accepted the invitation extended by Islamabad and said its delegation will visit Pakistan.

While the moderate faction of the Hurriyat Conference is meeting on Wednesday to take a decision, the hardliners led by Syed Ali Geelani are still undecided.

A DFP spokesperson said an extraordinary meeting of the party's advisory council was held in Srinagar in which it was decided to accept the invitation. "A delegation of DFP will go to Pakistan and Pakistan Administered Kashmir and meet the leadership — both political and militant — to discuss the Kashmir issue," he said. Mr. Shah expressed concern over the "increasing human rights violations in Kashmir."
