Udupi: Coming heavily on the militants attack on the Ram Janmabhoomi campus in Ayodhya the Bajrang Dal today (July 5, 2005) urged the Government to put down terrorist activities with a iron hand.

The soft attitude adopted by successive Governments at the Centre, including the BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party) led NDA (National Democratic Alliance) regime and the appeasement policies of the Congress and Left parties were responsible for the spurt in terrorist activities in the country, Bajrang Dal National Convenor Prakash Sharma alleged at a press conference in Udupi.

The Governments at the Centre have failed to initiate stern steps to curb terrorist activities, he charged and flayed the permission granted to Muslim organisations like Hurriyat to visit Pakistan without visa.

Sharma warned that any attempt by militants to destabilise and weaken the Hindus strength would be countered.
