00:00The surprise visit of US diplomats to Kashmir has raised many eyebrows.
00:27While the parties are terming it as a routine affair,
00:30many believe that the US is keeping a close eye on J&K polls beginning from September.
00:58I believe the BJP government is in the centre and with their approval the diplomats have come here.
01:03I think there is a fringe element who always make a mole out of a mountain hill.
01:09So I think there is nothing much to be seen in it.
01:27What we know is that they meet people from different walks of life.
01:31They meet politicians, they meet people from business fraternity, they meet all sorts of people.
01:37Primarily because it is a routine matter for them to go to places and gather reports what is happening around.
01:45But yes surprisingly this time we saw them only meeting one particular party
01:51and they don't have any information if they have met other people also which is surprising.
01:58I don't think it means somewhere but ok.
02:02Because we know we have some people elements in our India who don't like we people, like our country.
02:14So definitely they will talk to Naguido there. Am I right?
02:19It is important the US diplomats must meet the general masses of J&K.
02:49I think they can visit and it is good interesting also they can take a better because international media and internationally globally people should know
03:17that J&K is well prepared for the democratic process elections which are going to happen soon in J&K as the process is already started.
03:28And earlier if you remember the situation during elections it used to be very sensitive.
03:35And I think you all and we all should be proud that during elections US diplomats are coming.
03:43That means situation is more more far more better.
03:48Apart from travel advisories what else was discussed between the two sides?
03:55I think the weather was discussed. I think we discussed how Delhi was hot and Kashmir is better.
04:02We discussed how tourists should come more and we also like I told you that we discussed that they should come with their families.
04:12I think this was something that we discussed. This is election time. We were also very busy.
04:17They made a courtesy call and we thought that we should meet them.
04:20I think probably even in our parliamentary elections you must have heard all big countries have their concerns on elections.
04:30Particularly for a country like India which is the largest democracy.
04:34So I cannot rule out that probably yes they keep an eye, they are watchful of whatever is happening.
04:40I am not so much keen that what is US policy.
04:47But yes Jammu and Kashmir has always been highlight and in every news.
04:52And especially a bad news about the killings, about the casualties, about the political changes here.
05:00If they are so keen and interested that means it's a good sign again.
05:11Nice to see you. How have you been?
05:12Very good. How are you?
05:13Awesome.
05:14Hi, how are you?
05:15Good to see you.
05:19Hi, how are you?
05:20Good to see you.
05:21You are from Mexico right?
05:22Yes. I don't know.
