BJP will hang Tahawwur Rana before Bihar elections: Sanjay Raut
In a recent statement, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut has sparked a controversy by claiming that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will hang 26/11 terror attack mastermind Tahawwur Rana before the Bihar Assembly elections. Raut’s statement has sent shockwaves across the political spectrum, with many questioning the motives behind the BJP’s sudden decision to bring Rana from the United States.
For those who may not be aware, Tahawwur Rana is a Canadian citizen of Pakistani origin who was convicted of providing material support to the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist organization, which carried out the 2008 Mumbai attacks that killed over 160 people. Rana was arrested in the United States in 2009 and has been serving a 24-year sentence in a US prison.
According to Raut, the BJP’s decision to bring Rana to India is a “big success” but its attitude towards the matter is not right. “Have they brought Rana to give him death sentence or just to take credit?” Raut questioned in an interview. The Shiv Sena (UBT) MP also added, “They are going to do ‘Rana Festival’.”
Raut’s statement has been met with widespread criticism from various quarters, with many accusing the BJP of using Rana’s extradition as a poll gimmick ahead of the Bihar elections. The opposition parties have also demanded that the BJP provide a clear explanation for its decision to bring Rana to India.
The BJP, on the other hand, has maintained that Rana’s extradition is a major achievement for the government and that it will ensure that the mastermind behind the 26/11 attacks is brought to justice. The party has also accused the opposition of trying to politicize the issue.
The controversy surrounding Rana’s extradition has also raised questions about the BJP’s priorities and its commitment to national security. Critics argue that the party’s decision to bring Rana to India is a distraction from the real issues facing the country, such as poverty, unemployment, and corruption.
Moreover, Rana’s extradition has also raised concerns about the safety and security of India’s citizens. The 26/11 attacks were a devastating terrorist attack that left a deep scar on the country, and many are worried that Rana’s presence in India could lead to fresh violence and bloodshed.
In conclusion, Sanjay Raut’s statement has sparked a heated controversy in the political arena, with many questioning the BJP’s motives behind bringing Tahawwur Rana to India. While the BJP claims that Rana’s extradition is a major achievement, critics argue that it is a poll gimmick and a distraction from the real issues facing the country.
As the Bihar Assembly elections approach, it remains to be seen how this controversy will play out. Will the BJP’s decision to bring Rana to India pay off in terms of votes, or will it backfire and lead to a backlash against the party? Only time will tell.
