Former PoK president and leader of the All Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Conference, Sardar Muhammad Abdul Qayyum Khan has reportedly said that the UN resolutions on Kashmir had become obsolete.

Islamabad, May 4 : Former PoK president and leader of the All Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Conference, Sardar Muhammad Abdul Qayyum Khan has reportedly said that the UN resolutions on Kashmir had become "obsolete".

He said that it was time to accept that there were militant training camps in Pakistan and PoK in the past, but they were boldly closed down by Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf.

Khan said this while speaking at a press conference here on his return from New Delhi after attending 'Heart to Heart Conference' attended by Kashmiris from both the sides of the LoC.

He claimed that there were no training camps now "but some militants were still present in Pakistan and PoK".

He described his meetings with Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh and policy-makers as highly successful and expected a major breakthrough on Kashmir. He said that the Indian PM was also in favour of carrying forward the peace process.

He added that the proposals of self-governance and demilitarisation had been discussed in detail and India had expressed its willingness to do this in phases.
