Bangalore, Sept 17:
Congress on Wednesday demanded that the BJP government in Karnataka invoke the state's stringent law--the Karnataka Control of Organised Crimes Act (KCOCA)--against the perpetrators of attack on churches and prayer halls. "BJP has been talking about restoration of POTA and the central approval of Gujarat's GUJCOC. The KCOCA is right here in operation in Karnataka. Why has the government not invoked it against those who attacked churches? How many have been arrested under this Act", Congress spokesman M Veerappa Moily said at a press conference here. Terming the attacks by suspected Bajrang Dal activists as "pre-planned, well targeted and deliberate", Moily charged the BJP government with trying to prop up a "new theory" that forcible conversions were on to justify the attack. The government itself is responsible for creating a situation of anarchy and administration was interfering with the functioning of police, he alleged. The Centre would take "tough" action upon receiving reports from National and state Human Rights Commission and also by National Commission for Women, he said but did not specify the nature of action. Asked whether the Centre will ban Bajrang Dal, he said "anything can happen including banning Bajrang Dal". Moily, who heads the AICC Media cell, sought to brand the Vijay Sankalpa Yatra being undertaken by BJP leader LK Advani as "Ayodhya Yatra No.2". He urged the BS Yeddyurappa government to "halt attacks on Christians immediately." Bureau Report
Sure, Congress wants to prove itself more loyal than loyalist Christian Sonia Gandhi. When bombs exploded in Bangalore did Congress ask that KCOCA be invoked? No, because Congress does not want Muslim heads, it only wants Hindu heads to place in a platter before Sonia Gandhi so that conversions can continue unquestioned all over India. - K.Venugopal - Mumbai
