Amit Shah claims charges against Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur are ‘fake’
After courting numerable controversies with the Bharatiya Janata Party’s decision to field Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, an accused in the 2008 Malegaon blasts case, from Bhopal constituency, party’s president Amit shah, on Monday, claimed that the charges against Thakur were “fake”.
While addressing a press conference in Kolkata, Shah said, “As far as Sadvhi Pragya is concerned, I want to say that a fake case was filed in the name of Hindu terror with the intention to show the country’s culture in bad light. The court hearing the case concluded that the charges were fake.”
The National Investigation Agency had watered down the case against Sadhvi Pragya and others by dropping the charges under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organized Crime Act. The NIA special court ordered her to face trial under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act.
