BJP leader Arun Jaitley, who had planned to lead a party team to Kishtwar in the Jammu region of Jammu and Kashmir, was stopped by authorities at the Jammu airport and was not allowed to proceed on Sunday morning. An indefinite curfew was imposed in Kishtwar ever since riots broke out on Friday.

  • Stopping Opposition leaders in this manner shows that the Government does not want the truth about the Kishtwar violence to come out.

  • Condemn detention of Leader of Opposition @ Jammu Airport. Its a desperate attempt to hide the ground reality in Kishtwar.
    Smriti Irani, BJP leader
