The National Conference Students Union, youth wing of the opposition National Conference, today accused the state government of "sowing discord among" the youth in a bid to polarize the situation in Jammu and Kashmir for petty politics.
"PDP and BJP are pursuing a definite agenda to divide the people on the basis of region and religion", President National Conference Students Union (NCSU) Jammu ,Iftikhar Chowdhry, said while addressing a rally here.
Chowdhry referred to the incidents which took place at NIT Srinagar and Rajouri and blamed the government for its "wrong handling".
He said the forward looking, progressive and secular youngsters of the state will not allow such "machinations" to succeed and fight elements "inimical" to unity and tranquillity.
The NCSU President also expressed grave concern over growing unemployment, saying the government had no policy to tackle this problem.
He referred to the job policy of the coalition as "ill-conceived" and "anti-youth", which he said spoke volumesabout the sincerity of the government in solving problems faced by the young people of the state.
