He said the BJP should stop testing waters and experimenting with sensitive issues as people can’t be fooled for their rights and interests.

“Already there is large scale unrest in Ladakh region with regard to the cultural identity, land rights and jobs to youth, the Kashmir Valley maintains an uneasy calm under lot of pressures whereas people and youth in Jammu region have been realising the real threat to its social, cultural and peaceful existence, especially to lands and jobs and started asserting for legal and constitutional guarantees.
