Salient points of press conference of Senior BJP leader & Union Minister Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad

 

The court in the famous Batla House encounter case has given its verdict after 13 years and it has found the Indian Mujahideen terrorist, Ariz Khan alias Junaid guilty. The court has also said that the Batla House encounter was not staged.

 

The court’s verdict makes it clear that on the question of the country’s safety and security, the Congress party, Trinamool Congress and the Opposition sided with the terrorists and an attempt was made to break the morale of the police with respect to the heinous act of terrorism committed in Delhi.

 

After the Battle House encounter, Digvijay Singh and Salman Khursheed of the Congress party, Mamta Banerjee, Arvinf Kejriwal, Left parties as well as the Samajwadi Party and the Bahujan Samaj Party had termed the encounter as staged by the police and called it fake.

 

Now when the country’s court has given its verdict of finding these terrorists guilty and sentenced him based on more than 100 witnesses, scientific evidence, and medical evidence, will all these parties apologise to the nation.

 

According to Salman Khursheed, Sonia Gandhi had tears in her eyes after hearing about the killing of the terrorists in the Batla House encounter. Is Sonia Gandhi still crying after the court found the Indian Mujahideen terrorist, Ariz Khan alias Junaid guilty? Now what will Sonia Gandhi say on the Batla House encounter?

 

As per media reports, on October 17, 2008, Mamta Banerjee had gone to Jamia Nagar and had said that the Batla House encounter was fake and that if it is proven that the encounter is not fake then she will quit politics. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) wants to ask Mamata Banerjee, when is she quitting politics?

 

Arvind Kejriwal too has Sid that the Batla House encounter was fake, Will Kejriwal now apologise to the people of this country?

 

Is it not true that the roots of terrorism are deep in India? The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) demands an inquiry into how in a bid to prove that the Batla House encounter is fake, the morale of Delhi Police was adversely impacted.

 

Besides the Batla House encounter case, Ariz Khan alias Junaid was also a conspirator in the Lucknow court blast case, Faizabad and Varanasi blasts, as well as in the blasts orchestrated in Delhi, Jaipur and Ahmedabad. Several people lost their lives in these blasts. It is now clear that Ariz Khan alias Junaid was a serial terrorist and that the Congress party, Left parties, Trinamool Congress (TMC) and the Samajwadi Party (SP) as well as the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) were trying to save him.

 

The Congress party, Left parties, Mamtaji and the Samajwadi Party (SP) as well as the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) made the Batla House encounter a national issue and tried to weaken India’s fight against terrorism. Questions were also raised on the bravery and valour of the Delhi Police. Will India’s fight against terrorism be weaken like this all the time in the name of vote bank politics?

 

A coordinated and planned strategy against this terrorist, Ariz Khan alias Junaid could only be implemented on a large scale after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) formed the government at the centre under the leadership of Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi. Terrorist Ariz Khan alias Junaid was arrested by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police from Nepal in 2018.

 

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government under the leadership of Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi had adopted a policy of zero tolerance on terrorism. Now surgical strike by India is the answer to the Uri terror violence and Balakot air strike is the answer to the terror attack in Pulwama.

 

Today, I on behalf of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) want to pay respects to the slain Delhi Police inspector, Mohan Chandra Sharma for his valour and bravery. I salute the spirit of patriotism shown by his entire family and want to make it clear that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will always stand with the family of Shaheed Mohan Chandra Sharma.
