Srinagar, Nov. 25 -- Jammu & Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary on Tuesday said that education must not be divided on religious or caste lines, asserting that admission to institutions like Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University and Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University is strictly based on merit.

"BJP people are making this an issue for no reason. It should not matter which community a student belongs to. The capable child must be encouraged, not discouraged," he said while speaking to reporters as per KNS.

Choudhary stressed that Jammu and Kashmir has always been an example of communal harmony and warned that attempts to communalise education could harm society and future generations.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
