JAMMU, June 20: Taking serious exception to refusal by over 900 cops to attend the Amarnath duty, State VHP has demanded that strict action under law be taken against them.
Taking to reporters here, today VHP State president Dr Rama Kant Dubey along with other senior leaders of the organization, Hem Raj Khajuria, Dr Sham Lal Gupta and S R Sharma said that they all should be dealt with under Sedition Act.
He said the refusal to discharge the Amarnath duty by these cops is an anti-national activity and they deserved to be dealt as anti national elements.
He said some of these newly recruited policemen are surrendered militants and stone pelters who were appointed by the Government under a wrong policy and its repercussions have now become evident.
Dr Dubey said that VHP right from the beginning was opposed to appointment of surrendered militants and stone pelters as their credentials were doubtful and it had apprehensions that they will prove inimical to national interests.
He said it is not understood that how the militants manage to sneak this side despite tight security on borders. The security agencies have inputs that terrorists were planning to attack the yatra and they want to create chaos, confusion and force the Government to curtail the yatra duration.
He said VHP and other Hindu organizations are solidly with yatra and they will launch a nation- wide campaign so that more and more yatris come for the pilgrimage of holy cave.
He said nationalist forces in the State are ready to provide all cooperation and assistance to yatris and receive them with open arms.
Dr Dubey also expressed concern over the infiltration of three Chinese inside the Indian territory in Ladakh.
