Kaul for prompt action against terrorists

He said the Central government in consultation with Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir and HP government should formulate a joint action plan to eliminate terroirsm from the northern states claiming that his party was not against any particular religion and was only concerned about those sympathisers of Pakistan who went out in the garb of Indian nationals. The Union Government should revamp the counter-insurgency set up as the present one had proved to be no match to the ISI of Pakistan, he suggested.

Comming down heavily on the Bharatiya Janata Party governments in the state and at the Centre for its failure to check rising prices and inflation, Kaul Singh said that this had maded life difficult for the poor and common man in the country. The worst was that the necessities of life like foodgrains edible oils and vegetables had gone beyond the reach of common man due to increasing prices of these commodities day by day.
