Coimbatore: CP Radhakrishnan, a member of the party's national executive committee, met reporters at the BJP office in Gandhipuram, Coimbatore.He said there were signs of a recurrence of atrocities in Coimbatore in the past and condemned the state government's lax approach to the issue of temple vandalism.
He said the government had not allowed the police to act independently in this matter and that the goddess saree had been burnt in three temples.
He said there were two dangers to Coimbatore, "Islamic terrorism and separate Tamil Naxal movements" and that the Tamilnadu government should take action to nip it in the bud.
He said the BJP was not worried about the election and that it was unacceptable for the police to say that the attack on temples in 4 places was by a mentally ill person.
He said there was an environment for people to mobilize against Dravidian movements because of the silence of political parties on the Murugan issue, and that Stalin now knew the importance of the Hindu vote.
He said the AIADMK would embrace the biggest defeat if it did not wake up to the issue. The Chief Minister is not letting the police department to be independent.
"We are waiting to see if Stalin's mindset to condemn the attack on the temples is real. We have been warning the Tamil Nadu government since yesterday that if the state government does not take action, the state government will be compelled by the central government to take action.
CP Radhakrishnan further said that "the decision of the police to release only the footage of one place has raised suspicions and that the police should inspect all the places. We will meet the Commissioner of Police in person and lodge a complaint." He was accompanied by K. Selvakumar and Treasurer SR Sekhar.
