Terming the eviction of Baba Ramdev from the site of his hunger strike and the crackdown on his supporters as “naked fascism”, senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader a on Sunday demanded an apology from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi for the police action.
Mr. Advani also appealed to President Pratibha Patil to call an emergency session of Parliament to discuss the issue.
“This is naked fascism… The Prime Minister and the Congress party president, who is also chairperson of the alliance that she leads, owe an apology for having allowed the police to behave the way they did,” he told reporters.
Mr. Advani, who was here to attend a wedding, convened a press conference at short notice to express his views on the removal of Baba Ramdev, who was on a hunger strike at the Ram Lila grounds in New Delhi demanding concrete action to bring back black money stashed in foreign countries. He said he was returning to Delhi to participate in the party’s deliberations on its course of action.
“Reminds me of Jallianwala Bagh”
Sorry, Mr. Advani,
This is the nastiest cut I've ever heard from you, for God's sake don't compare it with Jallianwala Bagh, while I too along with the rest of the civil Society strongly condemn the usage of tear gas and lathi-charge on the innocent, sleeping crowds, there, I cannot buy your epithet, for this event.
U-Turn UPA Government had been left with no choice with the Flip-Flop Ramdev's continuously changing goal-posts and had put a full-stop to it.
Both are indulged in secret deals on such important National issues as Corruption and Black Money, cutting off of the general public, who are the major stake-holders in it.
So far you have not made your stand on Lok Pal and Lok Ayuktha; we, firmly , believe that that all the high offices at the centre should be brought under the Lok Pal's Act and like wise all the high offices in a states too must be brought under the respective Lok Ayuktha (this just means your pet, Mr. B.S.Y. would be brought under Mr. Hedge's purview).
Kindly declare your personal and official stand on the above, before you talk about fascism of UPA.
