INDORE/UJJAIN: A day after Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh called for investigations into the role of "all terror groups" behind last week's serial blasts in Mumbai, he stepped up his tirade against the Sangh parivar saying RSS was "making bomb factories". "I have been saying RSS was spreading terrorism in the country and it
has been making bomb factories," Singh was quoted as saying by a news
agency. Singh's remarks have drawn condemnation from BJP, with the party
describing his statement as "disgusting and objectionable".
Singh reiterated his statement to TOI. "The possibility of 'Sanghi'
fascists' (being behind the blasts) cannot be ruled out," he said. He
also clarified that he had not used the word "Hindu fascists" but
"Sanghi fascists". "I am a red rag for the BJP," said the
Congress leader on being asked as to why there were always protests over
his statements. Singh's alleging involvement of 'Sanghi fascists' in
the serial blasts also led to angry protests from BJP's youth workers on
his arrival in Ujjain on Sunday. Singh's car was blocked by angry BJP
workers, who waved black flags at him near Anantpeth. This enraged
Congress supporters, who charged at their opponents and a fistfight
began. Sources close to both parties said three people were injured in
the clashes. Singh said BJP and its workers were frustrated, and with no
option left for them were resorting to violence. BJP workers
followed Singh to Dudh Talai area, where he was to inaugurate a hotel.
The enraged workers flung chairs and shouted slogans against Singh and
his party. Another fight ensued. Several party workers on both sides
were injured. The BJP's youth wing submitted a memorandum to the
additional collector claiming that Congress supporters injured six BJP
workers. They were hospitalised.Speaking to reporters later in Ujjain,
Singh said there was no competition between him and the BJP leader Uma
Bharati. "Apart from holding a responsible post in the party, I am also
in-charge for Uttar Pradesh," he said.
