Pakistan a well wisher, will wave its flags : Geelani

Srinagar, June 1 (IBNS) Calling Pakistan a "well wisher", Hardline Hurriyat Conference leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani has said people will continue to wave Pakistan flags at its rallies in Jammu and Kashmir.

"Pakistani flags have been waved and will be waved in future as well as Pakistan is our neighbour and a well wisher," he said .

Geelani said  Kashmiris does not wish ill for India.

His comments came amid uproars over waving of Pakistani flags at several separatist rallies in Kashmir in the recent times that led to criticism of the Mufti Mohammad Syed's People's Democratic Government in J &K.

In the first instance on April 15 separatists waved Pakistan flags and shouted pro-Pakistan slogans to welcome Geelani from Delhi.

Similar incidents recurred several times after that.
