Amid the raging row over JNU, Union Minister Kalraj Mishra today said "stringent" action will be taken against those who raise anti-national slogans.

Terming the "anti-national" sloganeering in JNU as "unfortunate", the Union Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises said, "the culprits would be identified and booked under stringent laws".

"A section is trying to divide the country. Some political parties are trying to give a twist to whole incident for giving political touch to it," Mishra told reporters here.

On reported statement of BJP MP Shatrughan Sinha disapproving of slapping of sedition charges against JNU students' leader Kanhaiya Kumar, Mishra said that he has not read Sinha's comment.
 

"Whatever be the action, it would be taken as per the law of the country," he said.

He exuded "confidence" about forming a BJP-led government in the state .

"The SP-led government would be routed out in assemby polls because of its misdeeds," he claimed.
