Kashmir prefers to be independent: Congress leader Saifuddin Soz

Former Union minister and veteran Congress leader in Jammu and Kashmir, Saifuddin Soz, has made a controversial statement. Soz has suggested that Kashmiris would prefer to be independent if allowed to exercise “free will”. He has claimed in his upcoming book that former Pakistan president Pervez Musharraf’s assessment about 10 years ago that the people of Kashmir would prefer to be independent if allowed to exercise free will appears to be correct even today.
