Hardliners should be included in the proposed talks: J&K Democratic Forum

The proposed talks between the Centre and separatists would not yield results if hardliners were not involved in the dialogue, Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Forum said.

"Chairman of hardline faction of Hurriyat Conference Syed Ali Shah Geelani's involvement was inevitable and without him the talks would not yield desired results," Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Forum headed by Bhushan Bazaz today said.

"To resolve the Kashmir issue it was imperative that Pakistan also should be taken into confidence and separatist leaders and militants too," he said.
