Come any festival and there is thick layer of police patrolling in every nook and corner of the state. It includes the state reserved police, riot controlling squad, rapid action force along with the local police," Marathe said.

Thank You Indian Express

For standing by your slogan JOURNALISM OF COURAGE and putting these facts out in the open.Congress is the most communal party in India and this proves it. Maharashtra which has been misruled for the past decade by this party is a shining example on why people should think 10 times before casting their vote for Congress. Now, when will we see Godhra style hype for these 96 communal riots in Congress ruled Maharashtra?Let me begin:1. I want a SC appointed SIT to investigate the matter.2. I want Vilasrao Deshmukh and Aashok Chavan to be vilified.3. I want Maharastrians to be called names for voting the Congress repeatedly.Can we do this now?

We'll see a 'Godhra style hype' when more than a thousand people die in these '96 communal riots in Congress ruled Maharashtra'. Don't get me wrong, Congress has demonstrated time and again its utter incompetence in dealing with communal riots, but remember a lot of them are either directly incited by the BJP or the RSS; or as a result of the indoctrination and rumour-spreading of the Sangh Parivar.
 

Congressi Slime

Vote BJP/SS, as it has always been the congressis policy of inciting people and causing communal riots for their petty gain. The congress itself without the dirty GHANEHRU blood is not so bad. But whenever these slime GHANEHRUS are in pwoer, they suck the nations blood like leaches. Thw worst GHANEHRU's were/are Indira, MAINO AND THE MORON RAOUL

"Come any festival and there is thick layer of police patrolling in every nook and corner of the state.", it is not difficult to guess who start rioting. Well this is Gandhi/Nehru vision of India and "secularism" Congress style.
 

Congis Penchant for creating THUGS
By: G.Sriniwasan | 06-Oct-2009

In Maharashtra,except for a short span of 05 yrs by the BJP/Sena combine,the Congress has ruled the states.Just as they created a Bhindranwale in Punjab to arrrest the popularity of Akalis,the Congis created a THAKRE for their political ends.Today,the State of Maharashtra has gone to DOGS,the Congis have milked the city of Bombay.Solution lies in creating a seperate state of Bombay and an unbiased police force and ensure there are no more religous conversions in the state.
