Early Times Report
Jammu Oct 19
State BJP rejects out-of-hand the provocative suggestion of Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram that Jammu and Kashmir is a political problem and described the recent remarks over Kashmir Issue as ‘virtual endorsement of the separatist line.’
This was stated here today by BJP State President Ashok Khajuria while addressing media persons. Khajuria said in the light of Chidambaram’s view, we strongly assert that Kashmir is only a communal problem which needs deft and firm handling.
BJP state president said, “BJP also takes a strong exception to the Home Minister’s confirmation that some sort of a "Unique solution" is being worked out through a process of "quite dialogue" and "quite diplomacy". ‘The BJP would want the government of India to take the nation into confidence about the contours and content of this "unique solution", he said and added the BJP would like to know from the Union Home Minister as to what is so unique about Kashmir to qualify for a separate treatment.
‘It will be highly suicidal to accord political legitimacy to the separatist cause in the state and we have no doubt that separatism in the state is guided by highly regressive and communal ideology, he said.
The BJP chief however warned the Government of India about any compromise with the separatists and Pakistan. The BJP chief warned the Government of India about any compromise with the separatists and Pakistan. Re-affirming his party’s stand that the special status accorded to the state is the root cause of problems in the state and sooner it is withdrawn the better it would be for the nation, Khajuria said that any failure on the part of the Government of India to take cognizance of the BJP’s well-considered views or to continue to support the separatist line would only compel the nationalist forces in the state to create a 2008-like situation.
BJP State Spokesperson Ramesh Arora (Adv.) and party MLA Ch. Sukhnandan were also present in the press conference.
