Gandhi, who called up Singh over telephone, urged him to ask BJP cadre to help restore peace in Jammu and also not to politicise the issue, the party sources added.

Five towns, including Jammu, have been placed under curfew as the agitation continued demanding the restoration of a Jammu and Kashmir government order providing 40 hectares of forest land to the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board.
