Abdul Gani Bhat mourns 'good friend' Mufti's demise

Former Hurriyat Conference chairman Abdul Gani Bhat today visited the residence of late Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed here to offer his condolences to the bereaved family.
"Yes, I went there to offer my condolences to the family. Mufti sahib was my class fellow," Bhat told PTI.
Bhat, belonging to the Mirwaiz Umer Farooq-led moderate Hurriyat Conference camp, said he paid tributes to his "good friend" Sayeed.
Describing Sayeed as a leader with a "vision to bring India and Pakistan closer", Bhat said, that he wanted the relations between the two neighbouring countries to be on sound and solid basis.

The Hurriyat leader said Sayeed was a strong votary of dialogue between the two countries to resolve all issues and wanted that they (Indo-Pak) should resolve all issues, including Kashmir, that way.
"Now that there is some progress on it, Sayeed is no more," he rued.
