Venkaiah flays Rahul over Hindu terror remarks

BJP leader Venkaiah Naidu said such "irresponsible and immature" talks were strengthening Pakistan`s case and weakening India`s side against terror.

Mumbai: Flaying Rahul Gandhi over his remarks
on Hindu terror reported by WikiLeaks, BJP leader Venkaiah
Naidu today said such "irresponsible and immature" talks were
strengthening Pakistan`s case and weakening India`s side
against terror.

"It is Pakistan`s long term plan of aiding, abetting and
funding terrorism...they want to subvert India," he told
reporters.

Naidu was referring to the WikiLeaks cable which said the
Congress general secretary had told US Ambassador to India
Timothy Roemer that growth of "radicalised Hindu groups" which
create religious tensions in India posed a bigger threat to
the country than activities of groups like LeT.

The BJP leader also expressed concern over remarks by
Congress leader Digvijay Singh on slain ATS chief Hemant
Karkare and those of Home Minister P Chidambaram on saffron
terrorism, and said "Such irresponsible and immature talks are
strengthening Pakistan`s case and weakening India`s side
against terror."

Congress should introspect whether they are following the
footsteps of leaders whose name they are using, Naidu said,
adding, Congress ideology today did not represent the party`s
old school of thought.
