JAMMU, Mar 26: People across the country are unhappy with the manner in which it compromised its ideology to come to power in Jammu and Kashmir, as also in which the BJP-led NDA Government forced Minister of State for External affairs and former Chief of Army Staff General VK Singh to participate in the Pakistan Day party in new Delhi on March 23 in which seven Kashmiri traitors were also present.
The manner in which the BJP gave up its agenda and barter the interests of Jammu region to share power in the state has led the people to believe that "the BJP has cheated them" and that "it is worse then even the Congress which left no opportunity after 1947 to harm Jammu's interests to remain on the right side of the Kashmiri rulers". And the manner in which the BJP forced General VK Singh to participate in the function within the premises of the Pakistan High commission has led the entire country to believe that the "BJP-led NDA Government at the centre humiliated and insulted the nation" and "it lowered the image of India in the eyes of the international community and only emboldened Pakistan and its agents in Kashmir like Syed Ali Shah Geelani".
Many, including defence experts and strategic affairs experts, have said that "the participation of General VK Singh in the function has not only lowered the morale of the soldiers, but also undermined the sacrifices the Indian armed forces made in Kashmir to maintain national unity and integrity". "We have failed to understand why the BJP Government at the Centre is allowing Pakistan to humiliate India and create condition in Kashmir which help the traitors to play their anti-India games with utmost ease," many defence experts have said
It's not just the general population in the country in general and an overwhelming majority of population in Jammu and Kashmir which has disapproved of the BJP's policy towards Kashmir and Pakistan. Many senior leaders of the party too have expressed their concern over the manner in which the BJP-led NDA Government at the centre has been conducting itself after August 2014. On Monday, veteran BJP and former Deputy Prime Minister LK Advani cautioned the party leadership against any compromise on the party's stand on Jammu and Kashmir for the sake of running the alliance government. "The BJP's stand on Jammu and Kashmir is very clear right from the beginning and there is no change in it and there can be no compromise on the issue for any reason," he said at Bakrana Village, 50 kilometers away from Ahmadabad (Gujarat), and added that added that "some of the decisions taken by the state government without consulting its alliance partner (BJP) were undesirable".
Like Advani, the outspoken senior BJP leader Subramanian Swami also expressed himself against the BJP's policy towards Kashmir and Pakistan. He has said in unequivocal terms that the government should not have sent General Singh to the Pakistan High Commission considering the fact that the event was provocative and humiliating as far as India was concerned. "If at all it had to send someone, that someone should have been of the rank of Joint Secretary in the ministry of External Affairs".
There are many Advanis and Swamis in the BJP and the NDA who want the BJP-led Government "to act and not surrender".
