Targeting the intellectuals, academicians and journalists for participating in conferences organised by ISI conduit Ghulam Nabi Fai, several experts on Jammu and Kashmir issue today said that Pakistan had managed to fight a low cost war against the country with their help.

"Pakistan has managed to fight a low cost intellectual and propaganda war with the help of India's intellectual class against the country through Fai," said Dipankar Sen Gupta, Jammu University professor and Kashmir expert while deliberating on the issue of Fai-Indian intellectual links at a seminar at Press Club here today.

Pointing towards how Fai managed to use Indian intellectual class, he alleged the degree of complicity of the Indian intellectuals with Fai group is so deep, that the government intellectual class as well as a section of Indian media find it better to defend their involvement with Fai than to admit any wrong doing.

Speaking on the occasion, another Kashmir expert professor ML Koul said that malaise of internal subversion is such that it has almost crippled the policy making process particularly on the issues of national security.

"Fai's arrest in America has only brought out a facet of the problem which has infected the cross section of opinion makers in India.

"Hobnobbing with the agencies (Fai and ISI) of inimical country and masquerading as peace activists, peace individuals living in India have done irreparable damage to the national interest," Professor Koul said.

President of the Jammu Bar Association (JBA) BS Salathia lashed at the experts, peace makers who participated in the Fai's seminar and said that this is the time to isolate such individuals and not to allow them to influence policy making in India.

He said policy making in India should be insulated from subversive influences and this should be prime task of security agencies.

Speaking about the nature of subversion which has afflicted a section of political class in India, Chairman of Panun Kashmir (PK) Ajay Chrungoo alleged that those Indians who have been now exposed to be in ISI-Fai subversive circuit have been operating for years as track-2 lobbyists, emissaries and interlocutors not on the behalf of Pakistan but on the behalf of government of India.

"These persons are entrenched in the system and weaning them out is a critical task for all Indians. Those Indians who have been on the ISI circuit have also been on the US circuit," Dr Chrungoo said.

All of them who have taken part in the Fai's seminars have no commitment to India's unity which they have highlighted in their speeches and seminars, he alleged.
