| BJYM condemns desecration of temples | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, July 15: Chetan Wanchoo, State Media Incharge, Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha, J&K unit, today strongly condemned desecration of Shiv Temple in Doda, seeking thorough probe to nail the culprits and punish them under law of the land.
In a statement issued here today, BJYM leader took strong exception of this atrocious act and urged the UT administration to act stringently against the culprits as the incident has the potential to escalate communal tension.
Wanchoo said that it is quite unfortunate to find the trend of desecration of temples picking up in Jammu region. He said this is the fourth such incident of vandalism carried out at a temple since April. Earlier a temple was vandalized in Sidhra area on the outskirts of Jammu, followed by damage to Vasuki Naag Temple in Bhaderwah besides another incident of similar nature in Kathua's Mahanpur area a few days ago. Such repeated incidents have not only hurt the sentiments of the Hindu community, but that of all the sane people irrespective of the faith and religion they belong to, he added.
Wanchoo said that there is a lot of anguish in the society especially among the members of Hindu community over such acts of desecration. He demanded that the administration should identify the culprits of all these incidents and take stringent action against them, failing which the people of Jammu have no other option to come on roads.
While calling the incident as unacceptable, the BJYM leader said that perpetrators of this distasteful act wanted to flare-up communal divide in the region and therefore it is necessary for the people to not give heed to such attempts to vitiate peace. He asked people of Jammu region to come forward and expose such elements who are enemy of peace, prosperity and tranquility. |
