Kashmiri Separatist leaders, who were invited by Pakistan to meet its National Security Advisor Sartaj Aziz when he comes to India for the NSA-level talks, were placed under house arrest by the Jammu and Kashmir government on Thursday.

Yasin Malik, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Syed Ali Shah Geelani were placed under house arrest in Srinagar on Thursday morning.

Defence experts say that Pakistan’s invitation to the separatists was a move to provoke India into cancelling the NSA-level talks but sources say that India has no intention of cancelling the talks.

Last July, India called off talks after Pakistan consulted Kashmiri separatists before a meeting of Foreign Secretaries.
