Kishtwar, Apr 4: Minister of State for I&C, Home, Tourism, H&UD and R&B, Sajjad Ahmed Kichloo today said that people of Padder area of Kishtwar are wise enough to differentiate between the good and bad and warn the people against divisive forces who want to spread the hate among the two communities living peacefully since long.
While addressing series of meetings during his road show from Atholi to Gulabgard and from Atholi to Kijae in support of coalition candidate from Udhampur-Doda-Kathua seat Ghulam Nabi Azad, Kichloo without naming BJP and PDP said that some politicians from Kishtwar and Jammu are visiting Padder with a mission to seek the votes on communal lines and urged the people not fall prey to those politicians who want to divide them on communal and religious line. He said that people of Padder are peace loving and will play their part in strengthening the communal harmony and brotherhood.

He said that the Government has already floated the tender to explore the famous sapphire mines of Machail, beside the ground work with regard to execution of 450 MW Karthi Power Project is in advance stage.
