Taking a dig at BJP for its alliance with the PDP in Jammu and Kashmir, Shiv Sena today said the ruling party has joined hands with "those responsible for the ouster of Hindu Pandits from the Valley".

"It is surprising that those (BJP) who were playing the politics of showing concern towards Hindu Pandits (in J&K) are today in power in the state by joining hands with those who played an important role in the ouster of pandits from the Valley," Sena said in an editorial in party mouthpiece 'Saamana'.
