NEW DELHI: Home minister P Chidambaram on Monday said there are nine documented cases involving right-wing terror groups making bombs and killing people and BJP is targeting selective ministers because the UPA government has quickened investigations into them.
He said the objective of these fundamentalist groups was to clearly create terror and the government has to deal with that.
Interacting with PTI journalists, Chidambaram said BJP’s attack could also be due to the fact that the government has persuaded the court to hear two Ayodhya cases on a more or less day-to-day basis.
He was replying to a question why he was being targeted by the BJP linking him to the 2G scam.
“I think they know that there is no connection to the so called scam in 2G. I think they are targeting selected ministers for other reasons in this case.
“What I suspect is that we have quickened the investigations into a number of bomb blast cases where right-wing fundamentalist organisations are involved. We have quickened….we have persuaded the court to hear two Ayodhya cases on a more or less day-to-day basis,” he said. (PTI)
