Govt. decision unfortunate, says Hurriyat

NEW DELHI, JUNE 28. Terming as ``unfortunate'' the reported stand of the Government against the Pakistani President, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, meeting the Hurriyat Conference leaders on the sidelines of his coming summit, the 23-party conglomerate has called an emergency meeting of its executive committee next week to discuss its future course of action.

The Government's decision was a setback to the process of finding a solution to the Kashmir dispute, the Hurriyat Conference spokesman, Mr. Abdul Majeed Bandey, said. ``We took a decision to provide an opportunity to both, Islamabad and New Delhi, by seeking a meeting with Gen. Pervez Musharraf and the Prime Minister, Mr. Atal Behari Vajpayee, before or after the summit.''
