"Indian and Pakistani foreign secretaries met in New Delhi and Hurriyat leadership also held a detailed meeting with the Pakistani Foreign Secretary. We are happy that both countries have decided to carry forward the dialogue process," Mirwaiz said at a Friday address in city's Jamia Masjid.
Mirwaiz said the separatist amalgam also welcomed the forward movement on dialogue to resolve Kashmir issue.
"But we feel a need to develop a sense of urgency to resolve Kashmir issue and steps should be taken accordingly," he said.
The Hurriyat Chairman said the leadership of the two countries should take political initiatives to resolve Kashmir.
"Kashmir issue is a political issue and both the countries need to stop moving at snail's pace. They will have to formulate a process which includes Kashmiri people also."
Mirwaiz also expressed apprehensions over the government plan to woo Israeli tourists to the Kashmir Valley. "We are not against tourists, but the government should take care of the sensitivities of the Muslims," he said.
