New Delhi: The Centre may escape sharp questions over skirmishes with China in the upcoming Monsoon session of Parliament but could come under attack for the way it has handled the situation in Kashmir.
Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), Trinamool Congress (TMC), and Shiv Sena have pulled up the government for recent developments in the Valley, particularly after the attack on Amarnath pilgrims.
The three parties raised the issue at an all-party meeting called by Home Minister Rajnath Singh and Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj to apprise parliamentarians of the situation in Kashmir, and the standoff with China over Sikkim.
Some of the Opposition parties also suggested the government start a political dialogue after the death of seven pilgrims whose bus came under attack on Monday.
Sources told CNN-News18 that even Rajnath expressed his willingness to start a dialogue afresh to end the ever-spiraling violence, triggered last year after the Indian Army eliminated Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani in an encounter.
