New Delhi, May 07: BJP and Left members clashed in the Rajya Sabha today after Brinda Karat (CPI-M) demanded a fresh probe into Mecca Masjid blast in Hyderabad and sought to link the Ajmer blast to people connected with RSS.
Trouble started when BJP demanded that Karat’s remarks about RSS should be expunged as the incident was related to individuals and not the organisation.
Raising the issue during Zero Hour, Karat asked how immediately after the bomb blasts, top ministers and officials linked the incidents in 2007 to Muslim community alleging connection with terrorist outfits of Huji and LeT.
She said groups acting in the name of Hindutva were later implicated in Malegaon case.
Karat said that RSS had expelled one of its functionaries.
But linking these blasts with Muslims was “gravest injustice and shameful symbol of prejudice and communal profiling”.
