Will move 2 steps forward if Delhi moves 1 step: Mirwaiz

Srinagar, May 31: Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Friday said that if New Delhi moves one step ahead, he will move forward two steps for peaceful resolution of issues.

He was talking to media person at Jamia Masjid Srinagar after attending Friday congregational prayers.

Mirwaiz said it is unfortunate that government keeps him under house arrest without serving any legal notice to him. “I do not know why government keeps me under house arrest without producing any legal note. It is unfortunate. I am hoping this policy should end and I should be allowed to move freely and put forth my view in public,” he said.

He said if government thinks he will leave his ethical stand on issues, then they are wrong. “I hope government will realise the situation and take amicable steps accordingly ,”Mirwaiz said. KNS
