Opposition BJP on Thursday accused National
Conference and PDP of indulging in "competitive communalism" in
Kashmir and also blamed the Omar Abdullah government for losing control over
the administration.
"The explosive situation in Kashmir Valley,
which has been deteriorating day by day, has reached the level witnessed during
the Hazratbal controversy in 1963-64 when military had to play a role. The
tense situation is the result of the politics of competitive communalism by
both PDP and NC," BJP spokesperson Prakash Javdekar said. He claimed
that the Central government had not taken any "timely action" and
was supporting NC and PDP encouraging separatists, which was being "exploited
to the hilt by their bosses in Pakistan".
"We demand that the Centre call an all-party
meeting to have threadbare discussions on the situation in Kashmir and take
all parties into confidence regarding its intentions in the Valley,"
he added.
