23 Aug 2013 5:06 AM IST
Congress on Wednesday accused BJP of trying to ‘communalise and polarise’ politics to win elections as a row raged over Vishwa Hindu Parishad’s threat to go ahead with its proposed yatra from Ayodhya defying a ban by Uttar Pradesh government while BJP favoured allowing the event.
The Parishad, for its part, wanted Uttar government to reconsider its decision to disallow the yatra. Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh said it was ‘obvious from the day Amit Shah (Narendra Modi’s close aide) was made BJP general secretary in-charge of Uttar Pradesh. ‘There is nothing new in it....Because that is their agenda--communalise, polarise and try to win an election. That is BJP’s formula, BJP’s strategy from the beginning’.
