The Bharatiya Janata Party today demanded Ashok Chakra, the countrys highest peacetime military decoration, for the soldiers who killed Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani, saying he was a militant who had to die.

Burhan Wani was a militant who had to die and the security personnel who killed him need commendation. The personnel should be awarded Ashok Chakra, former state BJP president and Member of Legislative Council Ashok Khajuria said in Jammu today.

The BJPs point of view to deal with militancy is clear that the one who picks up a gun to disintegrate the country has to be dealt with an iron fist, he said.

Our viewpoint is clear, for us it is the message from Bhagwad Gita, BJP viewpoint is clear and we in no way support the policy of appeasement.

What I am saying is that Burhan wani was a militant and he met the end of a militant and security forces need to be appreciated for the same, Khajuria said.
