ISLAMABAD: The Hurriyat forum led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Saturday described the continued border tension between Pakistan and India as “dangerous for the peace of the entire region.”

The Hurriyat forum spokesperson in a statement issued in Srinagar said that thousands of people residing in villages close to the Line of Control (LoC) had been compelled to vacate their houses and move to some safer places.

He said that it was a fact that the Kashmir dispute was the main factor for the Pakistan-India tension and the plight of the Kashmiris. He also said that durable peace in the region was impossible without settlement of the dispute in accordance with the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.

The forum spokesman appealed to the global community to come forward and help in settling the lingering dispute to save the South Asian region from a possible destructive war.

He urged the leadership of both the countries to come to the negotiation table and sort out a feasible solution of the Kashmir dispute so that permanent peace could be established in the region.
