Bashir Assad
Jammu, Mar 12: State secretary CPI(M) and MLA Kulgam, MY Tarigami also demanded that a resolution be passed in the House seeking return of mortal remains of Guru. Talking to media persons outside the Assembly, Tarigami said it was a human issue and not a religious one and the legislators cutting across the party lines have concern about the happenings in Kashmir.
BJP leader Ashok Khajuria told reporters that the people of Jammu and Ladakh were against any such move aimed at undermining the "Bharat Varsh" and that the Kashmiri politicians were insulting the Indian democracy. If Home Minister has issued a statement, what is wrong in it, why should they handover the body of a terrorist who had been buried in Tihar Jail,?' questioned Khajuria.
"Only a selected group of Kashmiri politicians want to destroy the Indian State for their partisan interests, people in Jammu and Ladakh were against any such move,' Khajuria said.
Meanwhile, Rural Development Minister, Ali Mohammad Sagar accused opposition PDP of doing politics on the issue and said bringing resolution in the House was out of question. "Our stand is clear and we have expressed it several times that the body should be handed over to Guru's family so there was no question of bringing a resolution in the House," Sagar told media persons outside the Assembly. |
