Omar happy with centre's backing on BJP march-

JAMMU: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah is elated with the central government's unqualified support in stopping the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) march to Srinagar and the treatment meted out to three top party leaders, sources say.

"The chief minister is happy with the centre's support. Almost every one is speaking in his favour and he is rightly delighted," a source in the government who has been interacting with him told IANS on condition of anonymity.

Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram Tuesday came out openly in support of the Kashmir government's action against BJP leaders Arun Jaitley, Sushma Sawraj and Ananth Kumar who were sent back from Jammu to Punjab Monday night.
