Stop criticising security forces: BJP

Those rushing in to criticise security forces for their action in Sopore, Kashmir, should desist from doing so till the report of the judicial inquiry was made available, the BJP said on Monday.

“We condemn the criticism of the security forces,” party's general secretary Ananth Kumar said.

Asked why killing of innocent people, whether by the police in Gujarat or elsewhere in fake encounters or by the Central Reserve Police Force in Kashmir, should not be criticised, he maintained that the judicial inquiry's report should be awaited so that all the relevant facts become known.“It is not advisable to make unfounded allegations without first establishing the facts,” he said.
