Friday 29th August, 2008 (ANI)
Jammu, Aug 29 : The fourth round of talks between Shri Amarnath Yatra Sangharsh Samiti (SASS) and the panel appointed by the Jammu and Kashmir Governor headed by SS Bloeria will be held here today.
The talks, which were scheduled for Thursday, could not take place due the minor illness of Bloeria, who is leading the government side in the talks.
The samiti had earlier held three rounds of talks with the panel on August 23, but the talks remained inconclusive.
The fourth round was to be held on Tuesday, but the Samiti refused to come to the table, citing highhandedness of police and security forces during its 12-hour 'chakka jam' protest on Monday.
A five-point agenda had been set for the talks included reconstitution of the Amarnath Shrine Board, clarifying in appropriate details, the role and duties of the Shrine Board, assessment of the total requirement of land by the Shrine Board and working out an arrangement for use of 100 acres of land at Baltal-Domail by the SASB during the period of yatra.
The Governor''s panel includes Vice Chancellor of Jammu University Professor Amitabh Mattoo, former judge of Jammu and Kashmir High Court Justice (Retd) G D Sharma and Principal Secretary to Governor and Chief Executive Officer of Sri Amarnath Shrine Board B B Vyas.
The Samiti's committee consists of Tilak Raj Sharma, Brigadier (Retd) Suchet Singh, Narinder Singh and Pawan Kohli.
