Hurriyat Conference (M) chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq Tuesday welcomed  Prime Minister  Narendara Modi’s remarks that  the Kashmir issue cannot be resolved through bullets or abuses .

“If insaniyat(humanity)  and insaaf (justice) replace goli (bullet) and gali (abuse) the resolution will follow,. Welcome @narendramodi also believes ‘Goli & gaali will not help resolve Kashmir’ if insaniyat & insaaf replace them resolution can become a reality,” Mirwaiz tweeted.

In his August 15 speech, Modi  blamed “handful of separatists” for Jammu and Kashmir’s problems and said that the issue cannot be  resolved through bullets or abuses but by embracing Kashmiris.
