Union Minister Anurag Thakur has also accused the Samajwadi Party of having connections with terrorists for appeasement. He linked the blast to SP by showing pictures of Azamgarh terrorist Mohammad Saif’s father with Akhilesh Yadav, who was convicted in the recent Gujarat court verdict in the 2008 Ahmedabad bomb blast case. Anurag Thakur claimed the terrorist’s father to be the leader of the Samajwadi Party. Giving a slogan, Anurag Thakur said that Akhilesh has a plan, the terrorists have to be saved.

Addressing a press conference at the BJP headquarters, Union Minister Anurag Thakur said that the BJP’s stand on terrorism has been zero tolerance since the beginning, while the SP’s stand has been to protect terrorists. BJP welcomes Gujarat Court’s decision on 2008 Ahmedabad serial bomb blasts. In this order, 38 out of 49 convicts were sentenced to death while 11 were sentenced to life imprisonment. The terrorists were punished due to the efforts of the then Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi. After the blast, all the investigating agencies said that Chief Minister Modi should not go to the site of the incident. But Modi went to the spot and on his instructions the SIT was formed. The terrorists were caught within just 19 days. Be it Simmi or Indian Mujahideen, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has done the work of breaking their back. It is surprising that even after the court’s decision, there has been no statement from the SP leaders and their party.
Union Minister Anurag Thakur said that one of the people who have been convicted by the court is Mohammad Saif son Shahbad Ahmed. Shahbad Ahmed is a SP leader. Why is Akhilesh Yadav silent on this? Akhilesh Yadav and Shahbaz Ahmed are together in the picture when Akhilesh Yadav was the Chief Minister. Did the then Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav invite Mr. Samajwadi Party leader, whose son was the mastermind in the Ahmedabad bomb blasts, to feed him biryani? Will Akhilesh Yadav break the silence on this? Samajwadi parties have done the work of making Azamgarh a stronghold of terrorists.
The blasters in the SP government were released Anurag Thakur said that in his election manifesto in 2012, Akhilesh Yadav had announced to withdraw all the cases registered against terrorists as soon as the government was formed. Those who carried out bomb attacks in Lucknow and Ayodhya after the formation of the government, got them released by the Akhilesh government. When Akhilesh left the terrorists as soon as the government was formed in 2013, the court had said that if he leaves the terrorists, will he give him Padma Bhushan? He said that this statement of the court raises a question mark on the then Akhilesh Yadav government. Who are the people who carried out the bomb blasts in Ayodhya, Lucknow, Varanasi, from whom the terror charges were removed in the Akhilesh government?
Batla House encounter also raised
Referring to the Batla House encounter, the Union Minister said that on the martyrdom of Inspector Mohan Chandra Sharma, big leaders of Congress and SP had raised question marks. Congress leaders had said that Sonia Gandhi had wept bitterly at the homes of those criminals, but Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi did not have time to go to the house of martyr Mohan Chandra Sharma. Neither Akhilesh ji had time nor did the rest of the leaders. Similarly, seven CRPF personnel were martyred in the terrorist attack on the CRPF camp in Rampur. In this case also, the then Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav had tried to withdraw the case against the terrorists involved in this attack. Al Qaeda operatives were caught in Lucknow, but the Samajwadi Party questioned the police investigation and ATS. This shows their terrorist love. During the press conference, Rajya Sabha MP and national media in-charge Anil Baluni was also prominently present.
