Ahmedabad: BJP is all set to attack with all cylinders firing towards Congress on the issue of attack on Parliament. BJP, today being the sixth anniversary of attack on Parliament, has made this issue a poll issue with accusing opposition Congress of keeping the "conspirator" alive for consideration of votes.

The BJP has published advertisements in local dailies with a photograph of Chief Minister Narendra Modi.

The advertisements, published three days ahead of the second phase of polling on December 16,ask people to recollect the attack on Parliament that happened six years ago on this day (December 13,2001).

The advertisements in Hindi says all the terrorists who took part in the attack were killed and the conspirators were booked under anti-terror law The Prevention Of Terrorism Act (POTA).

The accused were sentenced within three years and the death sentence (on one of the convicts) was confirmed by the Supreme Court. However, for consideration of votes, the "conspirator" was still alive, it says, and asks for how long will compromises be made on terrorism?

The advertisements does not refer either to Congress or Afzal Guru, who has been sentenced to death for his role in the attack, by name.

But that the advertisements point to them is clear because the BJP has been accusing the Congress of not hanging Guru in spite of the apex court confirming his death penalty a year ago.
