Believe people in resolving Kashmir issue: Rajnath

New Delhi, June 3: Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said Saturday that the central government should bring its people to faith in a permanent solution to the Kashmir issue and go ahead in that direction. "We want a permanent solution to the Kashmir problem and we will do that by taking Kashmiri people into confidence," Singh said while addressing media on the third anniversary of the BJP-led NDA government.

Singh said the Kashmir problem has been there since 1947 and can not be resolved in a few months. "This problem is since 1947. It can't be resolved overnight (chutki mein). It will require time, but we will come out with a permanent solution. We are moving ahead in that direction," the Minister said. Singh said his government wants a solution through negotiations. "All issues can be solved by discussions. Who wants to talk to us, we're totally ready for it," he said.
