BJP to court arrests in front Raj Bhavans in country

Bhopal, Aug 2 (UNI) The Bharatiya Janata Party has decided to court arrest in front of Raj Bhavans in every state of the country to protest against revoking of land allotment to the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board.

''Party leaders, including MPs, MLAs and other party workers, would court arrest in phasewise manner on August 11, 12 and 13.

These arrests would be courted even in the BJP-ruled states,'' Mr Naidu told press conference here.

The decision has been taken to form public opinion in the wake of the Jammu and Kashmir Government taking the decision under the influence of the Centre.

Pointing out that the country had 'Haj' pilgrimage, 'Haj Bhavan' and arrangement for offering 'namaz' at ship, he said there was no place for belief of Hindus. An agitation was underway over the issue in Jammu and Kashmir since the past month but the matter was as it is.

''The Manmohan Singh Government survived the recent trust vote in Parliament but lost its image. This is victory of 'Note Tantra (money power)' and loss of 'Loktantra (democracy)','' the BJP leader observed.

Referring to CD episode, he said it was clear that fake CD was released to damage image of the BJP after the trust vote and to divert attention from original CD.

He said a Parliamentary Committee was probing the matter. The channel that carried out the sting operation did not telecast it.

He hoped that truth would come out and the ill intentions of the Congress and the SP would be defeated.
