NEW DELHI, Mar 30: Pakistan’s agencies are instigating youths in Kashmir through false propaganda in social media, Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh said today.
He asked the civil society and Jammu and Kashmir Government to make the youths understand the reality, instead of getting instigated by false propaganda by few people.
“Pakistani agencies are using social media to instigate youths of Kashmir valley through false propaganda in social media. I would appeal the youths there not to get carried away by such propaganda,” the Minister told reporters here.
His assertion comes as normal life in Kashmir valley had been affected for past few days allegedly by some separatist leaders to protest the killing of civilians there during a clash with security forces.
Dr Singh, Minister of State in Prime Minister’s Office, said these separatists are doing the politics of convenience.
“There are leaders who want to instigate the youths of Kashmir valley to indulge in activities like stone pelting and violence. But these very leaders want their own children to become IAS and IPS officers. They want their children to study in good schools. I feel that these leaders are doing the politics of convenience,” he said. (PTI)
