19 Mar 2015 Evaluate

Amidst raging controversy on Jammu and Kashmir government's alleged 'pro-separatist' moves, BJP chief Amit Shah said that his party would not compromise on national interest and could end its alliance with PDP, if 'Kashmir issue' is not solved. While addressing BJP workers in his Assembly constituency Naranpura Shah said that people of this country have blessed us like Lord Shiva and given us very big responsibility. BJP will never compromise on national interest, merely to remain in power in Jammu and Kashmir and added that BJP workers should go to the people to spread the message that the party would not compromise on national interest.

However, BJP's spokesperson Harshad Patel in Gujarat said that Shah merely said that national interest is the party's priority and he never categorically said anything about breaking the BJP's alliance with the PDP and added that Amit Shah merely said that national interest is our priority and BJP will not allow any anti-national activities on the soil of Jammu and Kashmir.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also clarified before the Lok Sabha that Alam's release is not acceptable and that the government won't tolerate any compromise on the nation's integrity. Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh had also echoed the sentiments saying that his government's top priority was national security and not continuance of the government in the state.
