Jammu: Reacting strongly to the move to
revoke issuance of Dogra Certificates in Jammu, the BJP on Friday
blamed the Omar Abdullah government for `communal and divisive
policies`.

"We lash out at the ruling coalition for its communal
and divisive policies. We take a strong exception to the
government decision to revoke Dogra Certificate order", BJP
Chief Spokesperson and National Executive Member Dr Jitendra
Singh told reporters here today.

"Revocation of Dogra Certificate exposes communal
approach of NC-led government", he said.

Dr Singh said that while the NC-led government always
takes pleasure in referring to BJP as a party that plays
communal and divisive politics, the fact is that it is the
National Conference-led government which is constantly working
to divide the state on the basis of religion and caste.

Dr Singh described the decision to revoke Dogra
Certificate order as a total sell-out by the state government
to the diktats of Syed Ali Shah Geelani and other separatist
leaders.

"This is a dangerous tendency on the part of
government", said Dr Singh and warned that it could boomerang
in the long run besides sending a wrong signal across the
country.
