<b>PM clarifies Centreâs stand on Malegaon to Advani</b><!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Mr Advani told the prime minister that the contents of the affidavit filed by Pragya Singh had compelled him to make the statement. He said it was a serious matter if her allegations about torture were true.
The prime ministerâs outreach clearly indicates an anxiety in the ruling side over the political cost of the Malegaon attack getting branded as âHindu terror.â <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>The BJP has seized upon the Congress brief roomâs wisdom of the subject to build a campaign that there was a concerted attempt to malign the majority community. All this is happening in the midst of efforts by a section of the ruling side to âwhitewashâ jihadi crimes. The government is routinely confronted with demands for providing legal aid to terror suspects and protection for arrested people. </span>
Sources in the government said the NSA will attempt to drive home the point that the investigation into the Malegaon blast was not politically calibrated. âThe NSA will try to impress Mr Advani that it is not a concocted case.â
<b>The government leaders, at the same time, concede that the hype over âHindu terrorâ was complicating matters. The state governments such as Haryana made matters worse by claiming that it will question Malegaon accused Lt Col Shrikant Prasad Puroshit for his possible role in the Samjhauta blasts. The ATS also made similar attempts. The ATS chief had to finally clarify that no such probe was on.</b>
But the prime ministerâs intervention is unlikely to bring the temperature down as his own party is using the issue to blunt the BJPâs soft on terror charge. With campaign underway for state assemblies, the two sides will not throttle their respective attacks<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Where is Volcker investigation?
Who can trust NSA or any organisation headed by greedy Babus who are serving Sonia not India?
