Although it is the Maoists who claim that they killed Swami Laxmananada, the VHP (Vishwa Hindu Parishad) is convinced that it was the Christian community which was behind the Swami’s killing.
In 2002, the VHP lynched five Dalits in Haryana for following their traditional trade of leather-tanning, as revealed by a dead cow in their possession. Over a carcass, the VHP killed innocent Dalit youths in Jhajhhar.
In Gujarat, we witnessed a hate propaganda let loose by VHP against the Muslim community. It promoted anti-Muslim sentiments and this led to large-scale bloodshed in the State. Hate-mongers and preachers of violence like Praveen Bhai Togadia are responsible for inciting mass hysteria against the Muslim community in Gujarat. There are numerous documents, movies, documentaries, etc, publicly available which reveal the true colour of VHP.
Violence, triggered by the killing of Swami Laxmananada by the Maoists, has spread in the State. For the VHP, the Maoists are innocent and the Christians are the real culprits. According to VHP’s rationale, the killing of the Swami had to do with his mission of re-conversion of Hindus and the Christians therefore had a valid reason to eliminate the Swami.The VHP has totally rejected the claim of the Maoists that they killed the Swami.
The government has admitted that 558 houses and 17 churches and prayer houses have been burnt in the violence which is still continuing.
Unofficial sources claim that over 30 people have been killed in the violence in Kandhamal district alone.
Is it the time to put VHP n Bajrang Dal amg terrorist grps n totally restrict their activities ??.
In April 2006, two Bajrang Dal activists were killed in nearby Nanded in the process of bomb making. The same group of activists were also suspected for perpetrating the 2003 Parbhani mosque blasts. Those arrested later told interrogators they wanted to avenge several blasts across the country.NDTV subsequently accused the police of a coverup in Nandhed. A report by the Secular Citizen's Forum & PUCL, Nagpur claimed to have found maps of mosques at the home of one of the deceased.
The VHP leader, Praveen Togadia, was arrested in April 2003 after distributing tridents to Bajrang Dal activists in Ajmer defying ban and prohibitory orders.
The Bajrang Dal has also been involved in bombmaking accidents on August 6, 2006 in Nanded, and on August 24, 2008 in Kanpur.
Aug-Sept 2008: Spate of attacks on Christians in Orissa and Karnataka. Karnataka unit head Mahendra Kumar arrested. Home ministry says Bajrang Dal is behind the attacks.
Jan 1999 : Dal mob led by its local leader, Dara Singh, burnt alive Graham Stains and his two little sons in Orissa.
On several occasions, Dal activists have acted as moral police, catching unmarried couples on Valentine's Day and forcing them to apply sindoor or tie rakhi against their wishes.
