A five-member committee headed by UP minister Shivpal Yadav, which probed the communal violence in Saharanpur that left three persons dead, has blamed administrative lapses for the incident and questioned the role of BJP.
“The report has been submitted by the committee to chief minister in which a BJP MP has also been named besides laxity of administrative officers”, Samajwadi Party’s National General Secretary Naresh Agarwal said.
BJP has dismissed the report as an attempt by the Samajwadi Party to gain political mileage.
The report of the committee has blamed laxity of some officers and said the government should take stern action against them to give a message to the bureaucracy, Agarwal said.
“As role of a BJP MP has also come to the fore, we can say that the party (BJP) has a role in the Saharanpur incident”, he said.
The committee in its report, sources said, has alleged that a local BJP MP provoked the rioters which led to attempts to torch shops.
It alleged that the administration became active only after the violence broke out.
