Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh Chief
Minister Akhilesh Yadav Monday blamed "some conspirators" for the
clashes in Faizabad last week. He said the clashes were "well
planned" and that he would expose the names of the perpetrators.
The chief minister told reporters that the people behind the whole
communal flare-up would be severely punished. "Everyone knows who
are responsible for the clashes," Yadav added.
His father and Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Mulayam Singh Yadav
Sunday said the riots were part of a very "large conspiracy".
The party's state unit has also alleged conspiracy behind the
riots. Opposition parties have slammed the state government of
failing to maintain law and order and are questioning the
seven-month-old Akhilesh Yadav government's ability to maintain
communal harmony.
"If the government knows everything, who is stopping it from
naming the people behind the clashes?" asked Vijay Pathak, state
spokeperson of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
He added that the fact that curfew has imposed for several days
after communal disruptions in Kosi, Bareilly and Faizabad is a
pointer that the state administration was not up to the mark.
Nine people, including two policemen, were injured in violence
that broke out during the immersion of Durga idols in Faizabad and
Barabanki areas Oct 24.
