Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh will lead an all-party delegation to Jammu & Kashmir on September 4.
The delegation is expected to interact with a cross-section of people as part of efforts to bring peace to the Valley, which has been witnessing unrest after the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Burhan Wani.
The members, sources said, are free to meet separatist leaders in the Valley but the Home Minister will meet only those who are ready to resolve all issues within the framework of Constitution.
The tour of the delegation may be extended by a day if they decide to visit Jammu to gauge the mood of the people of Jammu region.
Meanwhile, a Joint Secretary-rank officer was appointed in the Home Ministry as nodal officer for Jammu and Kashmir to address complaints of youths from the Valley, facing harassment in different parts of the country. According to official sources, Joint Secretary (Kashmir) will be the nodal officer and receive complaints from Kashmiri youths and co-ordinate between various States for an early disposal of such cases. The officer will have four dedicated telephone lines for this purpose, they said. On Sunday, the Home Minister had an hour-long meeting with BJP President Amit Shah, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and MoS for PMO Jitendra Singh and discussed with them the modalities of the all-party delegation.
