{image-CPI M_01062008.jpg news.oneindia.in}Lucknow, June 1: The Communist Party of India (CPI) today demanded that the Vasundhara Raje government in Rajasthan immediately step down for ;playing politics with the sentiments of Gujjars and indulging in blood-bath' in the state over reservation. CPI general secretary A B Bardhan said here that the BJP government of Rajasthan could be termed as a 'killer' government as it had given ''free license to the police to kill people.'' Talking to mediapersons, Mr Bardhan, condemned the killing of over 45 people of Gujjar community in the agitation and said after promising them the SC status, the BJP government played with their sentiments for four years.

When asked if his party demands dismissal of the Rajasthan government, he refused to comment. He however, said the present BJP government had no moral to continue and should quit. CPI secretary Atul Kumar Anjan said more than 150 people have been killed in police firing in the BJP regime and the government had done nothing. "'Now, it is a high time to get rid of the killer government," Mr Anjan said.
