J&K Terror Attack LIVE | Statement by Comrade Dipankar Bhattacharya, General Secretary, CPI(ML) Liberation on Pahalgam Terrorist Attack
Instead of holding a genuine all-party meeting for a collective consultation in the wake of a major terrorist attack and security failure, the government appears interested in only a selective PR exercise.
In 1984 even the BJP had only two MPs. Keeping small parties, including the party in power in J&K, the National Conference, and parties like the CPI(ML) which are well known for their commitment to Constitutional governance and communal harmony, out of a crucial all-party meeting apparently because of their limited parliamentary strength, only betrays the Modi government's lack of seriousness and readiness to listen to voices from the ground.
