Jammu, Nov 08: The state secretary of CPI(M) Mohammed Yusuf Tarigami today accused the BJP for raising divisive issues and misleading the people of Jammu division. Describing BJP as "enemies of the people", of the division, Tarigami said the party having lost its moorings among the masses is now trying to exploit the sentiments of the people by raising the slogan of a separate Jammu state.

He said such slogans strengthened the moves of the enemies across the border and also provide fodder to vested elements within our own country.

Tarigami, whose party is a partner in the PDP-led coalition government in the state, said the present government reflects the urges of the people of all three regions. He, however, said coordinated efforts are needed to redress the grievances of all areas of the state. Bureau Report
