BJP today termed the state unit of Congress as a divided house as it could not organise a major rally during its vice president Rahul Gandhi's visit here.
"Congress is a divided house and it stands exposed by the recent visit of their vice president Rahul Gandhi as the party was not able to organise a single rally during the visit of their leader," BJP spokesman Sunil Sethi told reporters here.
On the increase in ceasefire violations on the Line of Control (LoC) and International Border (IB), he said Pakistan must immediately stop meddling in India's internal affairs and should stop the firing on the borders.
When asked about Pakistan NSA Sartaj Aziz's statement that if Hurriyat was red line for India, Kashmir is the red line for Pakistan, Sethi said that the dialogue has to be between two elected governments and not with people who have lost their relevance in Kashmir.
"They wants to give relevance to Hurriyat as they have lost their relevance in Kashmir. Talks can be held between elected governments of the two countries," he stressed.
