| LoC trade to boost terror: BJP | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Sept 23: The decision of the Congress led UPA government to start cross LoC trade through Uri- Muzaffarbad and Poonch-Rawalkot routes, negates the February, 1994 Parliament’s unanimous resolution, said the state BJP president Ashok Khajuria here today. ‘The decision empowers Pakistan to tinker with Indian sovereignty in Kashmir’, he alleged.
Khajuria in a press statement issued today has said that the Parliamentary resolution had clearly said that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and that only issue which still remains to be resolved between India and Pakistan is the political future of PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan, which are undoubtedly part of the Indian state constitutionally, historically and politically.
‘By seeking permission from Pakistan to start cross LoC trade, the Congress has comprised the Indian position on Jammu and Kashmir and insulted thousands of the Indian soldiers, who laid down their lives to save Kashmir for India’, Khajuria said adding that ‘the BJP also takes this decision as a major concession to terrorism and politics of blackmail and communalism’.
He said the BJP also opposes the decision on two other specific counts and strongly urge the Union government to reconsider its decision taking into account the evil intentions of the Kashmiri separatists. ‘It should take the BJP into confidence before going ahead with this dangerous move’, he said and added that if the centre wants to establish trade relations with Pakistan through Jammu and Kashmir it should use the International Border and start trade between the two countries through Suchetgarh and Sialkot road. |
