Make Liberhan report public: Maya
Chief Minister Mayawati has demanded that the Centre makes public the Liberhan Commission report without any delay.
She also blamed Congress and BJP for the demolition of the “disputed site”. Mayawati said this while addressing mediapersons on Tuesday.
The chief minister said the Commission taking 17 years to complete its probe is not in the interest of the people. “Janata ka viswas kam ho jata hai. Sath hi dhan ki barbadi bhi hoti hai,” she said. Mayawati alleged that Congress, which was in power at the Centre when Babri Masjid was demolished, had advance information about the possibility of the demolition.
She added that secular forces had expected the Centre to dismiss the then BJP government in Uttar Pradesh to save the disputed site. “But the Congress government allowed the demolition to take place,” she added.
