Condemning the killing of innocent persons in Doda district of Jammu by terrorists, BJP on Monday said that it thoroughly exposed Pakistan President Gen Pervez Musharraf who had sought to show a human face when he came for the Agra summit. The killings in Doda and the attack on pilgrims to Amarnath by terrorists has angered the nation as it has once again shown the anti-human face of Pakistan and thoroughly exposed Musharraf who had tried to show a human face when he visited Rajghat during his visit to this country for the summit, party spokesman V K Malhotra told reporters. He said that terrorists continued to be aided and abetted by Paikstan and it is time the government propogated this at the international fora. Malhotra said that if people sought to raise the issue of violation of human rights in regard to these terrorists, then why are they not doing so in the case of innocent civilians killed by these terrorists in Doda village.
These terrorists are all foreign mercenaries who are being trained by Pakistan and carrying out attacks on innocent civilians, he said.
