The top leaders of the opposition INDIA bloc are likely to meet in the national capital on June 1 to assess their performance in the Lok Sabha elections and chalk out their strategy ahead of the results. West Bengal Chief Minister and TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee has said that she would not be able to attend the June 1 meeting in view of voting in West Bengal and cyclone Remal.
Moreover, sending a tough message, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has said that no family member of any terrorist nor close relatives of stone pelters will get government jobs in Jammu and Kashmir.
Shah also said that the Narendra Modi government has not only targeted terrorists but also eliminated the terror ecosystem, resulting in a drastic fall in terror incidents in the country.
"In Kashmir, we have taken a decision that if someone joins a terrorist organisation, their family members will not get any government job," he told PTI in an interview over the weekend.
Similarly, Shah said, if someone indulges in stone pelting, his family members will also not get a government job.
