The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday accused Pakistan of conspiring to disturb harmony and unity of India.
"Four terrorists have been killed in the encounter which is going on (in Pulwama). There has been constant effort of infiltration. This is a conspiracy to disturb the atmosphere of Jammu and Kashmir. The people have been kept captive under the terror and fear of the separatists. The Pakistani militant and the ISI are involved in this. It is a matter of concern," BJP leader Ravinder Raina told ANI.
Raina said a conspiracy is being hatched in Pakistan to disturb the nation's harmony and unity.
"It is extremely dangerous. I think it would raise more concern in the future. Pakistan doesn't want situation normalises in Jammu and Kashmir. It does not want the people to celebrate Eid. Be it Pakistan, terrorists or separatists, they are the greatest enemy of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. They are not only enemy to Muslims, but also to humanity," he added.
Raina said the BJP-PDP-led government in the valley and the Centre should deal with it firmly.
