Wide
spread
allegations about Nrendra Modi
are: Modi
had given a free hand to extremists to go on a killing spree which lasted for
several days/weeks and the army was called only after 3
full days.
Guru
Prasad cites the news reports of The Hindu - 4 in
numbers - to refute the above allegations and draws the following conclusions:
-Train was burnt on Feb 27th,
2002.
-Riots started on Feb 28th.
-Army was called on Feb 28th itself within hours.
-Army began flag marches on the next day i.e March 1st (Feb in 2002 had 28 days)
-By March 3rd, riots were under control.
-Riots started on Feb 28th.
-Army was called on Feb 28th itself within hours.
-Army began flag marches on the next day i.e March 1st (Feb in 2002 had 28 days)
-By March 3rd, riots were under control.
Special Investigation Team
appointed by Supreme Court had given Modi a
clean chit stating that apart from calling the army immediately, Modi
had deployed special police forces - Rapid Action Task Force. From this, it is
quite evident that the riot was in control within 72 hours.
