Hardline Hurriyat yet to take decision on meeting delegation

The hardline Hurriyat faction today said it will take a decision on whether to meet the all party delegation scheduled to visit the Valley on Monday after convening a meeting of its advisory council

"A meeting of the Hurriyat 'Majlis-e-Shoura' (advisory council) will be convened to take a decision on whether to meet the all party delegation," its leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani told reporters here.

He, however, did not say when the council would meet.

The chairman of the hardline faction was asked if he would hold talks with the delegation whose visit was announced after an all party meeting convened by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in the national capital yesterday.
