We have commitment not to name 2 emissaries: Rebuts news report about Saraf, Matoo<\/strong><\/p>\n

Srinagar:<\/strong> Rebutting a news report carried by a national English daily in which names of two Kashmiri Pandits were published who had reportedly met Geelani on behalf of BJP Prime Ministerial candidate Narendera Modi, the Hurriyat Conference (G)\u00a0on Sunday\u00a0said it is committed under oath not to reveal the names of Modi\u2019s emissaries who had met its chairman on March 22 in Delhi.<\/p>\n

The Hurriyat Conference (G) chairman Syed Ali Geelani had\u00a0on Friday\u00a0claimed that Modi had sent two emissaries to him making a \u201ccommitment\u201d to seek a solution to Kashmir issue. The national English daily had today named Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) National Youth President Sanjay Saraf and ML Mattoo, a former legislator from old-city Habbakadal as the two emissaries of Modi who had met Geelani in Delhi.<\/p>\n

Saraf has already dismissed the reports. Talking to KNS, Saraf said he has a personal relation with Geelani and meets him frequently but he has never met Geelani on behalf of Modi. Talking to KNS, Ayaz Akbar chief spokesman of the Hurriyat (G) said that the news report of the national English daily naming Saraf and Matoo as Modi\u2019s emissaries who met Geelani is totally baseless and far from truth.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are under oath not to reveal their names. But surely they met Geelani sahib on behalf of Modi. If anybody is interested to know who the two gentlemen were, he should verify their names from Mr Modi whose party in a fit of frustration is now denying such a meeting. They are denying this meeting for political reasons,\u201d Akbar said.<\/p>\n

Akbar also commented on chief minister Omar Abdullah\u2019s remarks in which Omar had questioned the secrecy behind the move and asked Geelani to identify Modi\u2019s emissaries to establish who was \u201clying\u201d. Akbar said that Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has an old relationship with BJP as he was a minister in BJP led NDA government and it is better for Omar to verify the facts from his old friends. \u201cWhy is Mr Omar Abdullah wasting his time\u00a0 in posing questions on names of two gentlemen who had met Geelani Sahib. He should asks his old friend Mr Modi about the same and he will quickly get the answers,\u201d Akbar added.\u00a0(KNS)<\/p>\n
