Ministers who fail to stand with them during tragedy have no moral right to talk of national interest,\u201d Jamwal said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BJP&#8217;s Rakesh Jamwal Slams Revenue Minister Jagat Negi for \u2018Insensitive Remarks\u2019, Demands Focus on Rehabilitation Efforts.\u00a0 &nbsp;
