SRINAGAR : Warning that nobody will be allowed to send a wrong signal which could communalise the situation, Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly speaker Mubarak Gul today asked government to give a statement on Rajouri incident in the House.
No wrong signal should go from this House which could further divide people on communal lines, Mr Gul said in the House shortly before members assembled today.
He said members who raise sensitive issue in the House should ensure that nothing is said which could further disturb the situation.
“Let this House appeal to all people of Rajouri to maintain communal harmony and defeat those who have vested interest to exploit them (people)’, speaker Mr Gul said.
Earlier before the start of Question-Hour, the speaker said he will allow some members to raise important issue for five minutes before taking up the first question of the day.
