Bangalore, May 20:

Hitting back at BJP on the issue of terrorism, the Congress on Monday said the deaths of hundreds of Indians at the hands of terrorists were 'soiled with the blood of BJP'.

Reacting strongly to BJP's repeated charge that the Congress was going soft on terrorists, the Congress again raked up the Kandahar episode, recalling the release of three terrorists, including Maulana Masood Azhar, by the then NDA government in exchange for hijacked air passengers.

"Maulana Azhar after his release set up Jaish-e-Mohammed, which killed hundreds of people on this side of the border", Congress spokesperson Kapil Sibal told reporters in Bangalore.

"The Congress party can legitimately say that responsibility for deaths of hundreds of Indians, soldiers and civilians are soiled with the blood of BJP", he said, adding, had those terrorists not released, these (terror acts) would not have happened.

"You (BJP) released terrorists to the market", Sibal said and accused the BJP of not "walking the talk" while "talking tough on terrorism".

Charging the BJP with "double-speak', he asked: "Where is the white-paper on terrorism that they (BJP) promised to release ?"

If we allow UPA to rule, India will be a 4th world country soon. by jay on 20 May 2008

All the major problems India is facing today are the creations of Congress party. Be it Khalistan, creation of terrorists like Langwal, Bhindranwale; accepting Pakistan and then China occupying parts of Indian territory (POK, Akshai china in Ladakh), Kashmir problem; North-East problem; denying Indian army a convincing win over Pakistan in all the wars around Kashmir; granting special status to many regions within India (that never allowed them to join the main stream India/Indians), dividing Indian society on the basis of caste/religion (it’s not BJP or RSS who created caste based reservation and allowed religion based special civil laws). Congress PM, Indira Gandhi is the worst PM a country can ever have. She forced common Indians to accept corruption as a “way of life” and introduced criminals into politics and policy making.

Call for Indians to become Wise People by Sangram Singh on 20 May 2008

Who agreed for plebicite in Kashmir unnecessarily, who put article 370 in Kashmir unnecessarily, Who dismantled POTA? Ask all these questions? Introspect yourself and you will know the real answers. My dear fellow Indians please become wise at least now.

BJP is everlasting CROOK.. lol by Vajpayee on 20 May 2008

BJP is the biggest crook. They start riots to gain votes. They release terrorists. BJP has no shame!

BJP is WEAK on terror.. remember Kandahar? by Sandhya on 20 May 2008

Yes, BJP has blood on its hands because it did release some of the worst terrorists in Kandahar. BJP not only released them but the Foreign Minister personally carried them and handed them as gifts to terrorists. FACTS are FACTS. Advani is a pathetic old man who screwed up big time by releasing them. Advani is a big time LIAR too. He says he does not know about Jaswant Singh going with terrorists. Advani is should go to Pakistan and retire there as he loves Jinnah.

Who agreed to Kashmir plebicite at UN unnecessarily, Who introduced article 370 on Kashmir unnecessarily, Who abolished POTA, Who is nuturing, harnessing and bolstering caste-based reservations, Who is subsidising Haj pilgrimage, who is constantly appeasing minorities just to get a few votes.

Kapish Sibal by Babuchandra on 20 May 2008

All congress spokeperson are idiots. Long time back they have surrendered their mind, soul and logics to their masters, fake Gandhi family. As long as Congress is in power, no Indian can sleep peacefully. No body knows whether their loved ones gone to the temple or market will return home in one piece. Congress supports terrorists and terrorist organisation for vote bank politics.

60 odd years of Congress rule ruined India and sustained its 3rd world status by jay on 20 May 2008

BJP, Congress fight, India bleeds by ASingh, USA on 20 May 2008

Don't Indians get fed-up of fighting among themselves, calling each other names etc.? This is the reason why India was enslaved for a 1000yrs and terrorism will succeed in India. In no other country will you find the main political parties divided like this - except India. Obama and Clinton may hate Bush, but they will never criticize the U.S Govt in public. The Republicans and Democrats will take responsibility and act as one on national issues- this is called patriotism. When will Indians learn the meaning of this word? The average citizens of India are f00ls- they think this is great entertainment, opposition and Govt fighting each other. And the media is a bigger f00l for gleefully distorting words and fanning the fires.Shame on India.

Congress has a new unofficial POTA Act implemented.... by Vikas Bhatt on 20 May 2008

It is not POTA [PREVENTION OF TERRORIST ACTIVITIES] but it is POTA [PROTECTION OF TERRORIST ACTIVITIES]or even POTA [PROMOTION OF TERRORIST ACTIVITIES]...

Congress has no shame left by jay on 20 May 2008

Congress has done enough damage to the country since independence. It allowed the creation of Pakistan and then Bangladesh. It institutionalized corruption in politics and daily lives of common Indians. It ruined law and order machinery; as a result people are increasingly taking up laws into their own hands, joining extremist groups like Naxals. Congress’s minority appeasement policy and double standard in ANY policies of international and national interest is gradually leading India to self-destruction.

the traitors by Milka Singh on 20 May 2008

I don't know where these dirty people like Sibal come from. Please deport him to Pakistan.

So which party allowed Khalistani terrorists blow up Air India planes Mr. Sibal? by Vikas Bhatt on 20 May 2008

Remember the Kanishka bombing episode? Not a single life was saved. Who created Punjab militancy that killed thousands? Why was masood in Indian jail for 5 years without even a chargesheet under Congress? Who is responsible for Kashmir problem and terrorism? How many Indian blood on Congress hands from Partition, Naxalism, Terrorism, Operation Bluestar, Sri Lnka misadventures, Sikh messacres, Nandigram, Emergency etc. Mr. Sibal? care to take up ownership of the sme?

BJP is no friend of Hindus by Jatin Patel on 20 May 2008

Dear Congress:Voters, citizens and people who elected you are aware that BJP did not do all that was promised and on top of it released the terrorists and never retaliated for Kargil at loss of jawans. This makes jawans use as pawns.But, what have you done besides finishing five years term? Please report to Indians. Even if you do not report, be prepared to leave for one reason, people are tired of your do nothing attitude. Both BJP and Congress are tokens of same inaction and has few wise morons who lecture without brains, act for quottas/religious bills which do not matter a single paise to common men. Go to gutters BJP and congress....

Deaths of Indians soiled with blood of BJP..... by A.A.Choudhari on 20 May 2008

A very appropriat question has been asked by your reader, about what reactions would have been of Mr Kibal, or Mr.Maple or any of the Congressite, if any of their family members had been involved in the Kandahar incident? But I may assure all the readers that these Congressites are so selfish that they would have allowed them to be massacred by the Militants. The question arises only when they are themselves involved. Because remaining in power is most important for them only next to getting killed.Mr.Kibal's family had no business to come over to India, and issue such stupid statements only for the sake of maligning BJP.It is quite true that for a congressite money and power are too important than anything else.God better had not given births to such personsfull of aggrandisements. All Congressites should better leave for China or Pakistan to teach their foolish views on Secularism leaving us Indians to manage our affairs.

Letter to Sibal by Jugal Hansraj on 20 May 2008

Mr. Sibal, Why is the Congress against POTA, Why is it against removing Article 370 from Kashmir, why they are not allowing Ms. Raje Scindia to deport illegal Bangladeshis. These are pro-active approaches to curtail terrorism? Once a plane is hijacked, your heart goes out for the people being tortured inside the plane. That is why Vajpayee released the terrorists. We Indians support that decision.

Congress's guru (sibal) by DEVA on 20 May 2008

Sibal do you congress guys has something new.Sonia maut ke saudhagar,manmohansingh will open graves,sibal a chamcha of gandhi's laloo khuda for all muslims,shiela dikshit doorwomen for all terrorist,Rahul massiah for dalit,lefties spitters and lickers,Digvijay called hindus terrorist UPA your days are numbered better watch your back.The day HINDU will become terrorist in India you all will be in grave.

Mr. Sibal's Logic.. by D. Sarkar on 20 May 2008

Mr. Sibal is acting like a cat trapped in a blind alley. Such a sorry state for Congress.

Sibal: another chela by Sangram Singh on 20 May 2008

Vajpayee being a kind-hearted man did-not want to risk the lives of Indian Families on-board on that aircraft. That's why he released the terrorists. Congress which is so used to vote-bank politics and chelas of the dynasty like Sibal who are prepared to be servants of the dynasty can say anything on TV.

SHAME TO GANDHI CONGRESS by indian on 20 May 2008

sibals logic not hold good. he wanted the innocent passengers to be killed by blowing the plane by terrorists.what a shame. congress should feel ashamed of talking like this. what can we expect from this party.

BJP says its strong on terror but acts weak by Amit on 20 May 2008

It is true that terrorists have hit India when BJP was in power and when UPA is power. It has nthing to do with the parties. Each party wants to protect the country. So, people who write comments based on their political associations are dumb. If one wants to then one can see both good and bad points in every event. It is true that the biggest error by BJP was to release the hardcore terrorists in Kandahar. Can you imagine US releasing Laden even for hijacked passengers? No way! So when BJP talks about being strong on terrorism they did act as scared cats during Kandahar.

Oh just shut up Mr Minister by Anand on 20 May 2008

Are you really a central minister..Mr Sibal? Coz u dont make any sense to any of the readers here. Arguing and accusing just for the heck of it...is not becoming of a central minister. Cut the crap and talk some sense if you can..well i dont think none of u guys in power can talk some sense...

Congress Hoodlums by Jay on 20 May 2008

Mr. Vajpayee did-not have the heart to risk several Indian families on-board on that aircraft. This is because, Mr. Vajpayee is a good, kind-hearted man. Not like the Congress hoodlums who only have stayed in power at New Delhi hook or crook.
