BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh today accused the Congress of conspiring to break down the communication system in the border state, and demanded that the Central Government should respond to this firmly.
He alleged the state government had been covertly supporting disruptive elements in the state, which in the garb of farmers’ agitation had brought about urban Naxalism in the state. Besides damaging more than 1,600 communication towers, such elements would block roads and rails, paralyse toll plazas, he added.
