The Home Minister, who is on a two-day visit to Orissa, met the victims living in relief camps set up after a series of communal clashes following the killing of 85-year-old VHP leader Swami Laxmananda Saraswati in August last year.
"I am sorry that certain things happened last year and you have been brought to these camps. But you must go back to your villages. I am here to tell you, don't fear," he said.
Condemning the incident, Chidambaram asked them to start life afresh, build the churches and practice their religion.
"Whatever happened was wrong. Build your churches and practice your dharma," he said.
When some refugees spoke of fear of RSS and Bajrang Dal, the Home Minister assured then that the guilty will be "prosecuted and punished."
"All those who have indulged in this ghastly crime will be prosecuted and punished," he said. The Home Minister visited Mandaika, Rahikola, Tinigia and Tikabali camps in the district providing shelter to about 1500 people.

First, this was a hineous crime and we have to condemn the act. George, the problem with christianity is it professes that jessus is the only path to god. So all other religions are bogus. Christianity in Orisa and other parts of the country isn't just about uplifting of poor but also about converting people. Thats where the crux of the problem is. We hear about all these acts but you don't hear what schemes are being used to convert people to Christianity. You suggesting that without the Bible you wont know the word of God quite simply tells people how limited the vision is.
Dear Sir:I am sure Mr. Chidambaram is a nice guy who dont mind to say sorry to anyone for reasons and without reasons. To keep his job and become employed he can say sorry only to those approved by Soniaji from Italy who dont mind and would be happy if he says sorry to christians even when they are wrong doing wrong things. Why to worry about this topic when we have much bigger problems to face as a nation: Our population is 110 crores; 9 Crore live retired life; 37 Crores work for state government who dont work; 20 Crores work for Central government who dont work either but waste time and nation's money; one Crore IT dont work for India but for foreigners; 1.2 Crores spend in Hospitals at any given time; One crore criminals are living in Jails and 1.5 Crore criminals are on the roads: 15 Crores are unemployed, 25 Crores in Schools waiting for their ruin by Sri. Kapil Sibal changing rules; 1.3 Crore under age 5 living in homes waiting their turn to suffer like their elders in Indaia
The Home minister saying 'please go back and build your churhces is very hurting for hindus of this country" he is clearly playing politics, have no real sympathy for the people. just serving his selfish need to serve his master. all congress ministers are employees of the FIRST FAMILY. it is a family business. if anyone incl prime minister hurts the sentiments of the ROYAL FAMILY, he is out. Mr chidambaram is not serving the country, he is serving the FIRST FAMILY. we only reap what we sow. All the poor of india are exploited by christian missionaries to convert.
r u a hindu???If so then help the riot victims, u ass.....
So, when would Chidambaram express teh same to:- the family of Swami Laxmananda Saraswati?- the Hinduus being killed on a daily basis in K
I see the RSS/VHP/BJP goonda gang is out in full force once again to glorify themselves and demonize all others. Hey, Hitlor worshippers, you are all uninanimously shedding your fake tears for Kashmiri Pandits. Can one of you tell us what your beloved RSS/BJP/VHP/SS government did for Kashmiri Pandits when you were in power for 6 years? Your government presided over some of the worst attrocities ever committed against Hindus and Sikhs in Kashmir. Remember that incident when terrorists lined up 26 people of a "particular" sect and shot them dead in cold blood? What exactly did your govt do then? Remember the incident when terrorists went inside a school campus and threw grenades at will? Remember your cabinet ministers freeing and escorting terrorists to their safety in AfgPak? I remember those incidents very well. What I don't remember is your kind beating your chests and shedding crocodile tears when those things happened. RSS/VHP/BJP/SS = Goondaism Hypocracy Nazi worship.
Now that Mr. Chidambaram has expressed his regrets to the residents of the camps in Kandhamal, he has set a trend and he now needs to follow up with many more expression of regrets.a) Srilankan Tamils in Tamilnadu.b) 1984 riot victims.c) 1992 Bombay blast victimsd) Kashmiri Pandits living in camps in Jammu and other partse) Various victims of Terrorist acts.Now next he should visit Ahmedabad and ask for the forgiveness of 2002 riot victims as well. JaiHo!!
So is PC resiging as Home minister, if he is really sorry and not palying political cards?
Forgiveness is the Christian walk of Life. You won't see that in any other religion. Uplifting of the poor, and bringing life to them is what all Christian life about. That is what Jesus Christ taught. Jesus said "I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, NO MAN SHALL COME TO THE FATHER BUT THROUGH ME." Jesus said,"YOU ONLY BELEEVE IN ME AND YOU SHALL BE SAVE." Jesus did not teach religion. He taught about God's eternal promises. Please read the BIBLE. widom is fearing the Lord. The Bible is the Blue Print. With out Bible you wont know the WORD of God and ll shall perish. JAI HIND.
Chidambram is sick. He is a bigot. God do show this guy his true place. Jai Shri Ram
The true face of chudamburam is now out..he is so seclullar licking Sccent Sonhiya's shoes...maybe now he can get her buram also for Chudam.
Since I belongs to orissa, I know the ground reality far better than our HM and UPA.One thing I would like this is the very fate of hindus in India.Our HM is saying sorry to Chrstians. What about those killed Swamiji in the eve of Janmastami.we hindus are deaf and dump. we have no eyes and year. what is happening to Hindus in Kashmir, Is it less sorry of not at all.What about Bangladesh Migrant , who create horror on hindu in North eat, will he says sorry.What about people killed by the terrorist due to the bad polcy of this UPA, whill he say sorry?What about killer of 4000 innocent sikhs , who butchered in day broad light in Delhi, in 1984.Will this UPA ever say sorry.Then why this type of discrimination. They are signing the tune of one lady, that every body knows the fact. who controll this nation. I am sorry, this is state of affirs of hindus in India.No care taker. its fact. This UPA will ruined this nation into hell.
Chindambaram's concern like the Congress's views are as usual one sided. An 80 year old man can be killed because he is a Hindu, but heavens will fall if minorities especially Congress party's co religionists or Congress party vote bank religionists are not allowed complete freedom to do whatever they choose.
So called secularism.You people have just hatred and hatred.
A lot of Christians believe in conversion and it is true that in West Europe
Ultimately the people will feel sorry for having brought congress back to power. This Home minister could not say sorry to the followers of slain swamiji.What was he doing all this time ? will he say sorry to the lakhs of Kashmiri Hindus still living in camps? Will he say sorry for the poor srilankan tamils kiiled in the war between the Srilankan army, fully backed by the Indian army and the LTTE? will he say sorry to the families of those who were killed in Mumbai massacre? He became an MP by dubious means if not fraudulently. Let him swear in the name of his mother whether he or anyone in the UPA govenment did not misuse their postion and instruct the Electoral Officer, the collector of Sivaganga to declare him as the elected MP in place of the actual winner Raja Kannappan. If there is fight between PC and Karnanithi to take the plaace of the most cunning person, PC will win. Hell with this cheap person whose aim is always money and votes. May god teach him a lesson soon.
Will PC care to apologise to Pundits who have been living like migrants in their own country ? His saying sorry to Kandhamal victims is ok..but this looks more at pleasing his boss that real sympathy.
Shri Chidambaram is a good man. He is aware that the refugees will not be harmed by the Hindu people in the villages. If His Holiness Lakshmananda Saraswathi was not murdered so brutally, there would have been no clashes or refugee problems. In Kashmir Hindus are not allowed to live in peace. Ethnic cleansing is their first step to take over territory. To that end, they organize mass processions carrying arms, harass people, stick warning notices on their doors, distribute pamphlets and create an atmosphere of insecurity to terrorize the population. The Pundits barely escaped massacre. If they return, they are sure to be massacred. Shri Chidambaram is aware of that too. Their places of worship have been destroyed. Ministers of Hindu faith in UPA cabinet have no guts to voice against atrocities against Hindu population. That will be the end of their political career.
1) Oh' Benevolent Home Minister of India - How kind you are - What a kind of heart is yours - It bleeds and it weeps for the sake of minorities just like your Prime Minister2) Oh' Benevolent Home Minister of India - What a kind of heart is yours. - It doesnot bleed and it does notweep for the sake of HINDUS OF KASHMIRIS who are refugees in their home land.3) Oh' Benevolent Home Minister of India - You do not have a heart which does not raise its beat at the death of good old Sanyasi of HINDUS.LET YOUR HEART BE REWARDED WITH A NOBEL PRIZE. JAI HO
The releif camps were only for the converted Christians and the government provides reasonable facilities to those who stay there. The Hindus in that area who are upset by the organised killing of the Swamiji were never consoled by anyone. The proxy of Missionaries rule India and also the media. Andhra Pradesh is now called Christa Pradesh. Pilgrimage Trip to Jerusalem is funded by government.
because swamiji was a hindu so his death does not matter Mr Chidambaram.
Mr.KPS Gill was absolutely right about the comments of Indian politicians. Here this gentleman said sorry to the minorities converted by the enimies of the nation. Shame on you man! This is what called 'cheap politrics'. Tricks of a political impotant! I agreed Mr.Chandra's view about the Kashmiri Pandits. This utopian kingmaker forgot millions of poor people especially hindus suffering in India from these converting angels. His government cant stop convertion because they will get another vote if one is converted. He will not say sorry to the hindus because they are not vote banks!
Did our Home Minister ever said "I am Sorry" to the Hindus for failing to protect the life of a revered monk and his disciples? The blood of a monk was spilled on the soil of Orissa by the Christian Maoists and there is no one in this country of a billion people to shed a drop of tear. 36 bullets were pumped into the body of a 82 year old sanyasi and his limbs chopped off in this GREAT NATION of ours. Shame on to the Indians who are proud of this secular justice.
Chidu is a biased man. He is speaking Maino's words. Has this fellow even bothered to say sorry for sikhs masaccred in new delhi or kashmiri pandits/sikhs being regulary butchered in kashmir or even swamiji's brutal murder orchestrated and deviously planned by the evangilicals in orissa. What a shame that a man of his qualification is nothing but better than a chaprasi in front of Maino, who is a stooge of the Vatican
Home minister has showm that he is true Christain. He never apologised to Hindus of orissa.
