"I think, if any person is trying (to) divide Hindustan then strict action should be taken. This is one place where we should not be tolerant," Union Food Processing Minister Kaur told reporters on the sidelines of 'Make in India Week' here.
Recently Home Minister Rajnath Singh had warned of "strongest possible" action against those involved in raising "anti-India" slogans at an event on the JNU campus.
Kaur said the entire JNU incident is being politicised.
Meanwhile, on disruption of Parliament proceedings, she said the Congress has become vindictive after being voted out.
"This is fact that Congress has been kicked out of the power and they are taking revenge on people by not allowing the Parliament to function," she said.
Kaur alleged the Congress has decided no new laws would be passed and they don't want the country to progress.
"They have not allowed the previous two sessions (of Parliament) to function and this has resulted in a loss of crores of rupees. They will not allow the upcoming session to function as well," she added.
