    Malegaon probe
    Police have claimed that Lt Col Purohit was the kingpin who allegedly obtained arms licences for others.

    Not just that, ATS officials have also alleged that Purohit was in touch with a Bangladeshi Hindu militant outfit and had held a meeting in this connection at Kolkata. While this angle is still under probe, police have told the Army that the network was spreading quickly even though it had started only a few years back.

    PUNE: Hindu groups here have come together to form a “Hindu Legal Aid Firm” to provide free legal aid to the Malegaon blast suspects and to any Hindu who, they claim, is “meted out injustice” by the police. Announcing this on Thursday, Hemani Savarkar, president of the Hindu Mahasabha, said a bank account in the name of Hindu Legal Aid Firm has been opened in Delhi. “The firm will raise funds for providing free legal aid to the Hindus who would be falsely implicated in terror acts,” Savarkar said in the presence of representatives of Hindu groups.

    HIght of appeasementBy: Manoj Gupta | 08-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward I am surprised to see that many people and ATS are behaving like all the blasts happened in India so far are done by these Lady Saint and army officers!!! A blast where only 6 people were killed are being pursued with most interest and Press as well as Congress Govt have forgotten blasts of Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Ahmadabad etc where 600 persons were killed. This is hight of appeasement of one community for vote bank politics.
    Role of police tooBy: M.SHOAIB | 08-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward The police is also seen soft towards Bajrangdal,RSS and VHP activitists having links with 2 bomb makers who died at Kanpur. 'Sad is the remark by the IG Police that the BAJRANGDAL IS NOT THE FOCUS OF ATTENTION. Equally sad is belittling the recent Kanpur blast in which a Hindu boy parked bicycle that carried bombs How fair and just enquiry results may be from such officers..The police be given to note that their roles too one or the other day shall be enquired in helping terror.
    Recruit Muslims in the armyBy: Sabtukalilima | 08-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward The military and terrorism experts say that they expect that this case of a serving military guy's involvment in a brutal terrorist attack on the Muslims was probably just one of several Hindu extremists within the ranks of the Army, which will now have to overhaul its internal monitoring systems. "There's been a process of political radicalization going on for some time in the Indian armed forces" said Dr Ajay Sahni, executive director of the Institute for Conflict Management. "At some level, probably a large number of people in the army will have become infected. Indian political administration shows open discrimination and prevents Muslims joining the army, not even 0.5% of the army consists of Muslims. It is high time the Govt. changes its policies in order to bring a counter balance to the secret activities of Hindu fanatical elements in the Indian armed forces.Release the names of Muslim army men who had acted to jeopardise Indian security.
    Imagine What would have happened if BJP was in Power?By: Sabtukalilima | 08-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward Colonel Purohit’s arrest shows a very deep going conspiracy in the involvement of bomb attacks through out India not only the one that killled at least six people near a Masjid in Malegaon on September 29. The arrest of the retired major ( Ramesh Upadhyay ) is adding fuel to the burning fire of the extremism of Saffronite mischief to create terror and come to power as they did after demolishing the 450 year old Masjid structure on the pretext that Lord Rama was born on the spot of the Masjid. Colonel Purohit and Major Upadhyay were both members of Abhinav Bharat a Hindu extremist organisation. LOOK AT THE CONNECTION. Abhinav Bharat's President is Himani Savarkar, the niece of the Hindu radical WHO ASSASSINATED MAHATMA GANDHIBut BJP fully supports their actions under the banner of cultural nationalism. and safeguarding Hinduism as if Hinduism is in danger of being wiped out from India.Terrorism is allowed deliberately allowed to advance Hindutva ideol ogy.
    Terrorisn-- MalegaonBy: B.Dass | 07-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward It will not be in the interest of our country to rake up this issue and publicise it again and again by the press and the Political leaders as this will widen the gap between the Army and the Govt. It will be the best to leave this matter to be handled by the Army and report to the Govt. of the day.It can not be denied that Govt. has not been able to handle terrorism and people have suffered a lot and lost lives.
