Opposition raised the issue of ceasefire violations in the J&K Assembly

The Jammu and Kashmir Assembly was adjourned on Monday after opposition legislators created ruckus over continuing ceasefire violations by Pakistan.

As the House assembled this morning, members of the National Conference and Congress raised anti-government slogans over government's alleged failure to protect the people from Pakistani shelling.

Amid noisy scenes, opposition members charged that the government was silent on large scale deaths of people in border shelling.

The government assured the statement after Question Hour.

BJP MLA Ravinder Raina raised the issue of Pakistani firing on the LoC and demanded that a resolution be brought out against Pakistan in the Assembly.

Opposition MLAs attacked the PDP-BJP government for its alleged failure.

Peace and reconciliation process is the only way out, said PDP minister Abdul Rehman Veeri.

“We want the process started by Atal Bihari Vajpayee to be taken forward,” he added.
