Pak’s political instability can affect India badly: SASS

Amarnath Sangarsh Samiti expressed apprehensions that the political instability in Pak may have ‘adverse’ effects on India.

Sri Amarnath Sangarsh Samiti (SASS), spearheading protests over the Amarnath land issue, on Tuesday expressed apprehensions that the political instability in Pakistan may have “adverse” effects on the country.

“Pakistan has again plunged into political instability and it can divert the issue by indulging in any misadventure with India,” Samiti Punjab unit convener Mahant Ram Prakash Dass and Chandigarh Forum on Integrated National Security president P C Dogra told a joint press conference in Chandigarh.

Dogra, a former Punjab police chief, said protests over the land transfer will continue until 40 hectares of land was restored to Sri Amarnath Shrine Board (SASB).

“The protest by the Samiti is a fight against separatist elements. The innocuous act of diversion of land has been whipped up by separatists.”

The Samiti reiterated its demands for the restoration of autonomy of the Shrine Board, withdrawal of cases against protesters and registration of cases against police officials over alleged excesses.
