Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde made serious allegations against the BJP and the RSS at the AICC meeting in Jaipur, accusing them of organising training camps to promote Hindu terror.
“We are meeting here and an investigation report has come that says BJP and RSS are organising training camps to promote Hindu terror,” said Shinde. “The Mecca Masjid, Samjhauta Express blasts and Malegaon blasts are examples. There have been instances when they have planted bombs and blamed the minority community for it.” Shinde repeated the statement later in his speech, urging people to stay alert to the Hindu terror unleashed by the BJP and the RSS.
BJP has condemned his speech in strong words. The party immediately organised a press conference to respond to his statement. “A home minister can’t make a comment that disturbs the peace of the country,” said BJP spokesperson Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi. “Terrorists are infiltrating our country, killing our soldiers and our government is welcoming them with roses,” Naqvi said. The BJP termed it as a statement encouraging terror outfits. In a warning tone, Naqvi sought an apology from the Congress top brass. “We demand Sonia Gandhi to apologise to the party and nation. Otherwise they will face grave consequences. They have no credibility and it has been proven once again.”
The party also alleged that by making this statement, the Congress has encouraged terrorist outfits.
However, after the hue and cry, Shinde denied part of his statement. “I was talking about saffron terror, which is not a new thing. It is all in the newspapers and everywhere and I have just said that,” he said.
