Omar, BJP vis a vis silent anti anti anna team on TN resolution

Guru & Rajiv killers must hang,says BJP Srinagar/New Delhi: J&K chief minister Omar Abdullah,in his tweet on Tamil Nadu politicians appealing to the president to spare Rajiv Gandhis killers the noose,said,If the J&K assembly had passed a similar resolution for Afzal Guru,would the reaction have been as muted I think not. The CM had earlier conveyed his reservations about Gurus execution to the Centre,saying he was worried about its fallout in the Valley. However,Omars apprehension of a political furore appeared justified when the BJP asked him to refrain from commenting on the issue.This is a sensitive issue and Omar Abdullahs comments are unfortunate.Had a Hurriyat leader made such remarks,it would have been understandable.But a responsible chief minister should be restrained.At a time when the Supreme Court has already given the death sentence,raking up this debate is unfortunate, BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said. Another BJP spokesperson,Ravi Shankar Prasad,insisted that any person who tries to attack Indias sovereignty and integrity or kills a former PM deserves the death sentence and ought to be executed.The BJP is clear that all those handed capital punishment after due process of law,including confirmation by the Supreme Court and rejection of clemency plea by the President,should be executed, he said. The Congress remained noncommittal. The CMs comment on twitter is his business.Its not for us to take cognizance of.These are sensitive issues on which each state government has its own perception.We can only wait and watch, party MP Renuka Chowd hary said,adding,In a democracy,it is perfectly okay for people to voice their opinions collectively or individually.I do not think we should speculate.
