PC linking terror with religion unfortunate: BJP

New Delhi, August 27: Despite being isolated in the Rajya Sabha on the ‘saffron terror’ issue, the BJP continued to target Home Minister P Chidambaram for his remarks and asked him not to link religion with terrorism.

BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy told reporters outside Parliament that terror should not be linked with any religion and that it was most unfortunate that the Home Minister of the country kept making such statements.

He said the Home Minister was generalising the issue of terror to brand a community.

BJP today found itself isolated in the Upper House in its protest against Chidambaram’s statement on rise in ‘saffron terrorism’, with Left and other opposition parties joining hands with Congress to target the main opposition.
