Congress today blamed PDP-BJP coalition partners of pushing J&K into an atmosphere of "conflict and controversies" over the issues of religious and regional sentiments, and cautioned the people to "remain vigilant" about the designs of communal and divisive forces in the state.
"We blame the ruling coalition partners of pushing the state in the worst kind of atmosphere of conflict and controversies over the issues of religious and regional sentiments," J&K Congress chief Ghulam Ahmed Mir said today.
He cautioned the people to remain vigilant about the designs of communal and divisive forces in the state and defeat every attempt to disturb the traditional harmony and religious brotherhood.
Addressing a largely attended function at Madeen (Hiranagar) in Kathua district today, JKPCC Chief expressed serious concern over the prevailing "atmosphere" and blamed ruling coalition partners for the current situation.
Mir urged the people and the secular forces not to allow the evil designs of communal and divisive forces to succeed in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mir was speaking at a function held at Hiranagar in connection with year-long celebrations of 125th Anniversary of Baba Saheb B R Ambedkar being observed by the Congress throughout the country, including J&K.
Paying floral tributes to B R Ambedkar, the JKPCC Chief remembered his contribution in framing the Indian Constitution wherein the provision for the welfare and the upliftment of poor, downtrodden and each & every section irrespective of caste, creed colour or religion was kept and approved by the Constituent Assembly of the country.
