Srinagar, October 22
Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti has convened first-ever Unified Headquarter meeting during the current unrest to find a way out .
The meeting has been scheduled for October 25, the sources said.
It is designed to send two messages that Chief Minister is concerned over the security situation in Kashmir , particularly after the threats surfacing following the Uri attack by Pakistan sponsored terrorists and retaliatory surgical strikes by the Indian army in Pakistan occupied Kashmir.
However, the agenda has not been finalsed . It will be a frank meeting where Chef Minister, according to sources close to her, would do some plain speaking and demand accountability from the army, paramilitary forces and police for the alleged excesses committed by them while dealing with stone throwing protests.
She had pleaded with police to parent the protestors and spare the local militants – a theory that the police and security forces find difficult to digest. “ It cannot be a one-way ticket, we are not here to get killed by the stones, which are as lethal as bullets nor are we here to start the crèches ,” another official told JKNT.
