Orissa bandh on Christmas Day a 'communal conspiracy': CPI(M) MP
New Delhi (PTI): A CPI(M) member on Wednesday alleged in the Lok Sabha that a "big communal conspiracy" was being hatched against Christians in Orissa with a "communal" organisation giving a call for a 'bandh' on the Christmas Day.
"A big communal conspiracy is being hatched by communal organisations to bring parts of the country into the milieu of communal disturbances," senior CPI(M) leader Hannan Mollah said during the Zero Hour.
A "communal" body had called a bandh in Orissa on December 25, he said adding, "this is a serious matter and the Christians may be attacked again by the VHP-Bajrang Dal elements."
Asking the Centre to take serious note of the developments in the state, the CPI(M) leader said "communalism and terrorism are the same and government should also include communal attacks in the ambit of the new anti-terror laws."
Mollah was supported by Congress member Madhusudan Mistry and RJD's Devendra Prasad Yadav. more: http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/001200812171540.htm
