Stop fiddling with Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board: NC tells BJP

Jammu, Aug 30 (UNI) Lambasting BJP for unleashing a ''sinister campaign'' to control and monopolise the institution of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board, National Conference has cautioned it against any attempt to dilute the credibility, sanctity and efficacy of Board.
“The arrogance of power at the Centre and in the state, together with tacit support of PDP, has revitalised the lust of BJP to the extent of even trampling the Jammu and Kashmir Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Act, 1986. The act has enabled this autonomous institution to attain enviable position across the country and even abroad to manage 24X7 pilgrimage successfully,” National Conference leaders said in a joint statement issued in response to the statements of senior BJP leaders in recent days.
The statement says that the NC views seriously the tentacles being spread by the BJP to take over the control of the Board by amending the Act. Ever since the establishment of the Board, not only the yatra has increased nearly nine fold in less than two decades due to infrastructural facilities on modern lines for pilgrims but the outreach in health and educational sectors too has been stupendous.
