New Delhi: Concerned about the prevailing unrest in Kashmir, Prime Minister Narendra Modi cut short National Security Adviser Ajit Doval’s visit to Kenya and sent him back home 24 hours before his scheduled return.
Regularly taking stock of the developments in the valley with officials, Doval expressed confidence that solutions would soon be found.
"If there are problems, there are solutions. We are quite confident and competent of finding solutions," he told PTI when asked to comment on the situation in Kashmir.
Doval was accompanying the Prime Minister on his four-nation tour of African countries -- Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania and Kenya. They were to return home tomorrow but the NSA came early.
The NSA did not elaborate but official sources expressed confidence the situation would be under control in 72 hours.
"People of Kashmir are law-abiding and solidly against terrorism. They believe in peace, prosperity and development," said a government official.
At the same time, government sources asserted that those holding the gun and targeting civilians or security forces would be dealt with sternly.
Kashmir has been on the boil ever since the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani, who was the poster boy militant, on Friday last in an encounter with security forces in Anantnag.
