"The country is agitated over the conduct of the government. On one hand it bows before the separatist forces to cancel land allotted to the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board, on the other hand, it is soft on terrorists. This is a step ahead of being opportunist...," BJP youth wing chief Amit Thaker told reporter.
