New Delhi, Sept 14: The recent incidents of terrorist violence in the country appear to be part of a bigger gameplan of militants who should be given a befitting reply, Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani said today. "This has been going on... There is no one small aim. We have to fight it out", he told reporters on the sidelines of a function to mark 'Hindi Day' here.

Advani said this in reply to a question whether the killing of Kuka Parray, father of counter-insurgency, and stepped up violence was meant to derail the peace process in Jammu and Kashmir. The Deputy Prime Minister said he would be meeting Chhagan Bhujbal, Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, who is arriving here later in the day to discuss the prevailing situation in the state rocked by twin blasts on August 25.
