Kolkata: The Rashtriya
Ekta Jatra of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will further worsen
the situation in the Kashmir Valley as the saffron party has no
understanding of the situation there, Communist Party of
India-Marxist (CPI-M) general secretary Prakash Karat said Sunday.
"This yatra of BJP and its youth wing to Kashmir will further
worsen the situation. They don't have any understanding of the
problem. In the Kashmir Valley, after five months of turmoil,
efforts are being made to engage all sections of the people," he
said.
"At this juncture the BJP and its youth wing going over there and
hoisting the national flag will further aggravate the situation,"
said Karat while addressing media persons here.
The youth wing of the BJP, Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha, has
kicked off the Kolkata-Srinagar Rashtriya Ekta Yatra with the
declared aim of strengthening the unity of the nation and to bind
the youth of India with Kashmir.
The rally started Jan 12 from Kolkata and will pass through 11
states before reaching Lal Chowk in Srinagar on the Republic Day
(Jan 26), where it will culminate in hoisting of the national
flag.
