Kashmiri leaders from both India and Pakistan were meeting in Nepal to discuss the Kashmir's future among themselves, an official said on Sunday. Leaders of the moderate wing of All Parties Hurriyat Conference, politicians, former ambassadors and rights activists from India and Pakistan were among at least 25 people participating in the three-day conference to boost ties between the rivals.
"Kashmiri leaders from both India and Pakistan, including some Hurriyat leaders, ex-bureaucrats and scholars have been meeting in Kathmandu since Saturday to help build confidence and good rapport between India and Pakistan," the official who declined to be named said.
The three-day conference was organised by the Geneva-based International Pugwash Foundation and ends on Monday. Pugwash holds conferences around the world to seek solutions to global problems.
The aim of the meet was to bring together people from India and Pakistan and provide them with a platform to discuss the long-standing dispute over Kashmir.
