Srinagar, Oct 19 (PTI) The Hurriyat Conference and other separatist outfits today said they will boycott the assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir which they termed as a "futile exercise"."Hurriyat has nothing to do with this meaningless exercise and would ask the people to stay away from it as well," Mirwaiz Umer Farooq, chairman of the separatist amalgam's moderate faction, said after the Election Commission announced the seven-phased poll schedule for the border state.The Hurriyat leader said rather than focusing on the real issue-- the settlement of Kashmir, the government was trying to give an impression that Kashmir was an "administrative" problem which could be fixed by holding elections.

******************************************************************

One one hand the Hurriyat conference complains to everybody and their mom that India is stifling democracy in Kashmir and when it is time to exercise the democratic right by voting out an unpopular government and voting in their choice, the Hurriyat backs away and hides behind their familiar rhetoric. Their Pakistani handlers really need to be a little more creative for they and their poodle ,the Hurriyat, is getting all too predictable!
