Only solution to Kashmir is making borders irrelevant: Omar

Tarar has been at the centre of a controversy over an alleged affair with Union Minister Shashi Tharoor though both have denied being in a relationship.

The issue took a dramatic turn after Tharoor's wife Sunanda Pushkar was found dead in mysterious circumstances in a Delhi hotel on January 17.  

Omar said there were opportunities in the four-point formula proposed by Musharraf to resolve the Kashmir issue, including demilitarisation and softening of borders.  

“Because for the first time he (Musharraf) stepped away from stated positions. I think what happens is that India and Pakistan's relations are hostage to stated positions...The stated position is that both sides have to vacate the occupied part,” he said.
