SRINAGAR, Oct 10: Senior PDP leader and Lok Sabha member from Central Kashmir, Tariq Hameed Karra, on Saturday held the coalition partner BJP and the Sangh Parivar squarely responsible for the rising communal tension, including last night's attack on Kashmiri truck driverd in Udhampur, and warned that consequences of an economic blackade to the Valley could be dangerous for Jammu.

In a strongly worded statement, Karra asked the Government to take stern action against the radical Hindutva elements, who he said, seemed to be "hell bent upon vitiating the atmosphere in the State for vested political interests". 

“BJP and its allies in Sangh Parivar should understand that choosing J&K as a turf for playing perilous games for electoral gains in Bihar would have disastrous consequences as J&K is a sensitive state and any fresh trouble in the area would have huge diplomatic implications,” Karra said.

"The elements trying to foment communal trouble in Jammu region, should realize that they will be causing immense harm to the economic interests of the Jammu region by their diabolic actions", Karra added.

“By trying to choke supply lines to Kashmir, the Sangh Parivar will be responsible for countermining the economy of Jammu region, which is predominantly dependent on Kashmir’s huge consumer market,” he said and added that such disturbing acts could also fuel a wave of backlash in Kashmir, which is struggling to cope up with the tragedies of turmoil and uncertainty.

Karra demanding booking of the people responsible for the Udhampur attack under Public Safety Act and other anti-terror laws. He contended that the petrol bomb attack on unsuspecting truckers was an act of terrorism and the persons responsible for it should be booked under the anti-terrorism law.
