New Delhi, Sept 21: A national convention of Indian Muslims on Jammu and Kashmir today condemned Pakistan supported cross-border terrorism in India and appreciated the endeavour of the two neighbouring governments to initiate bilateral dialogue to resolve all the outstanding issues, including Kashmir, between the two countries. "We totally reject the ill-conceived presentation of terrorism, which destroys innocent lives. We, therefore, condemn infiltration of terrorists across the LoC and Pakistani support to terrorism", a draft resolution of the convention said after day long deliberations to discuss the concerns of Indian Muslims regarding Jammu and Kashmir.

The resolution also appreciated the endeavour of Governments of India and Pakistan to normalise their relations and expected that the process would lead to resumption of dialogue on all bilateral problems, including Kashmir. The convention, favouring resumption of negotiations between Centre and the state government in the light of the resolution adopted at the state assembly on autonomy, it welcomed the recent announcement by the Central government to initiate the process of a dialogue with all sections of the people in the state.

Asserting that the accession of Jammu and Kashmir was "final and irrevocable", it said that the convention regards the Muslim dominated state as a "bulwark" of the secular foundations of Indian federal polity and that this implies not only to the long-term interests of the state people but for the entire country.
