Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday said that the Jammu and Kashmir Government misused the law, by preventing them from entering into the state in wake of recent incidents of clashes between two communities.
BJP spokesperson Prakash Javadekar said here today that it was the misuse of law.
"Yesterday BJP leader Arun Jaitley was shown an order under the section 144; and denied permission to go out of the Jammu airport and sent back to New Delhi. It was the misuse of law, how could they do it," he said.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Arun Jaitley, who was on his way to Kishtwar, was detained at the Jammu airport on Sunday morning and was requested to return, following the curfew in the district.
Kishtwar remained curfew-bound on Sunday for the third consecutive day after communal violence broke out in the city on the day of Eid-ul-Fitr on August 9.
Curfew was clamped in three more districts of Udhampur, Samba and Kathua in Jammu region and Army staged flag marches as tension prevailed following outbreak of communal violence in Kishtwar.
