Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Monday condemned the incident of desecration of a Delhi church, which has raised concerns among members of minority community, saying he will personally meet Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and request him to bring the culprits to book.
He also asserted that the name of BJP should not be dragged in such cases.
“I condemn the recent desecration of a church in Delhi. I will meet the Union Home Minister the day
after on Tuesday when I will be in Delhi, requesting him that the culprits be brought to book,” Parrikar told PTI after a meeting with the delegation of Catholics at his office here this evening.
“I am going to meet the Home Minister personally. I feel that the population, which is in minority, should feel secure,” he said.
Parrikar said he would also take up the matter with Delhi Police Commissioner and ask him to expedite the probe. He, however, refused to assure anything on the police action against the accused.
