"Communal forces should shun communal and disruptive tendencies and help people to lead a dignified life, based on love, amity and brotherhood, which is the true spirit of Jammu and Kashmir's pluralistic ethos," CPI(M) state secretary, M Y Tarigami said at a convention on 'communal harmony', organised by the Jammu Regional Committee here.
"Dividing people on the communal lines is barbaric and highly dangerous," Tarigami added.
He said some 'communal forces' have not reconciled with the age-old traditions, rich cultural, linguistic, religious and geographical diversity of our people.
"This trend to divide people on communal lines if not arrested well in time, could be dangerous to our state," Tarigami said.
