Change anti-terror policy: Advani
July 17th, 2011 - 3:02 pm ICT by IANS
New Delhi, July 17 (IANS) BJP leader L.K. Advani warned Sunday that terrorist attacks of the kind that killed 19 in Mumabi will recur unless the central government changed its policies.
“So far as the Mumbai killings are concerned, you can blame neither the chief minister (Prithviraj Chavan) nor the home minister (R.R. Patil) of (Maharashtra),” Advani said in the latest post on his blog.
“It is New Delhi that is squarely responsible.”
Both Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi must realise that unless the government’s anti-terror policy changed radically, such incidents would continue, he said.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader said the Congress should not try to find scapegoats for the Wednesday triple blasts in Mumbai.
“The common man must be feeling amazed to read the Maharashtra chief minister blaming the blasts on the NCP (Nationalist Congress Party) just because the home portfolio in the state is with the party,” he added.
The blasts at Opera House, Zaveri Bazar and Dadar killed 19 people and left more than 100 injured.
