BJP state president Jugal Kishore Sharma told reporters here that "the act of carrying head of one of the Indian soldier is most inhuman and extreme disrespect to the deceased".

It is also against the International laws and the UN terms and conditions, he said.

Hitting out at Congress-led UPA government at the Centre, Sharma alleged it is because of the inconsistent and soft policy of the Union government that such acts take place repeatedly and the culprits go unpunished.

After every such act, the Government of India declares the matter will be taken up at the highest level with Pakistan but no follow up has ever been seen, which further encourages the enemy designs.

 

Referring to the peace talks with Pakistan, the BJP president said "talks and bullet do not go together".

"It is most unfortunate that this incident took place when Interior Minister of Pakistan had just concluded his visit to India for so-called peace talks and cricket series between the two countries is being played," he said.

Demanding review and revision of India's foreign policy towards Pakistan, Sharma claimed had the UPA not deviated from the firm stand taken by Atal Behari Vajpayee led NDA government, such a situation would not have risen.

In a gruesome attack, Pakistan regular soldiers crossed into Indian territory in Poonch sector of Jammu and Kashmir yesterday and ambushed an Indian patrol killing two soldiers, one of whom was decapitated.

State Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) also condemned the action of Pakistan Army. MORE
