Azadi will never happen , Army chief Bipin Rawat tells Kashmiri youth

New Delhi, May 10 (IBNS) : In a curt message to Kashmiri separatists,  Army chief Bipin Rawat has said  that ‘azaadi for the valley  will never happen’ as one cannot ‘fight the Army’.

In an interview to The Indian Express, General Rawat said, “I want to tell Kashmiri youth that Azaadi isn’t possible. It won’t happen. Don’t get carried away unnecessarily. Why are you picking up weapons? We will always fight those who seek Azadi, those who want to secede. (Azadi) is not going to happen, never”.

The Army chief said that he is concerned about the youth, who are misled and told that picking up guns is the “path to bring azaadi” which will never come true.

Rawat further said that he doesn’t attach much importance to the number of militants who are killed in encounters with the Army. “These numbers don’t matter to me because I know this cycle will continue. There are fresh recruitments happening. I only want to stress that all this is futile, nothing is going to be achieved by them. You can’t fight the Army."
