As angry exchanges between both sides continued, Modi told the opposition: “Do not teach us patriotism.”
“We will unitedly talk against any incident that affects the unity and integrity of the country. I assure the Opposition that we will not make any compromises on this” . Venkaiah Naidu Parliamentary affairs minister told the Centre was never consulted on Alam’s release by Mufti Sayeed’s government in J-K. Home Minister Rajnath singh said the Centre would not hesitate to issue a strong advisory against the Mufti Muhammed Sayeed government in J-K if it was not happy with the explanation given on the release of Alam.
