Insisting that the restrictions across Kashmir are being relaxed in a phased manner, he said the schools, colleges and other educational institutions will also be reopened. Public transport, he said, will be made operational as the government offices have already started working. Asserting that no civilian death took place and 12 of the 22 districts of the state functioned normally, the chief secretary said phone connectivity would be gradually eased and restored in a phased manner, with landlines to be restored first. He said various political persons are under house arrest since August 5. A statement was issued to the media that is being reproduced here:
1. A fortnight ago, some major decisions were taken with a view to promoting the long-term welfare of the people of all the regions of the State and to ensure better governance and accelerated development. The Government’s approach was guided by the conviction that all-round development was the most credible solution to address separatist sentiments that were propagated by vested interests. Such sentiments were being utilized to legitimize a policy of cross-border terrorism that has cost the lives of thousands of inhabitants of the State and the country.
2. The intent of terrorist attacks was to create an atmosphere of fear and terror and to block development that could unleash opportunities for the younger generation of the population. Among the groups that are well-known for sponsoring violence and carrying out such attacks are Lashkar-eToiba, Jaish-e-Mohammad, Hizbul Mujahideen, etc. Their record has been recognized by the Governments worldwide and by international organizations, including the United Nations.
