PATNA: Charging BJP President L K Advani of garnering Hindu votes by raking up the Ayodhya temple controversy and seeking a ban on SIMI, the Samajwadi Party on Wednesday demanded a similar ban on the RSS for "vitiating the atmosphere of communal harmony in the country."

"If SIMI must be banned, so must the RSS for vitiating the atmosphere of communal harmony in the country," Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav told reporters at Patna airport after making an aerial survey of flood-hit districts.

Dubbing the BJP as 'Bharat Jalao Party,' Yadav said it has always played divisive politics and cited its role in the recent shrine land agitation in Jammu. He said he would meet the Prime Minister tomorrow and seek central assistance for the lakhs marooned in the state.

He thanked the Centre for declaring the floods in Bihar as a "national calamity" and hoped that all governments would contribute to the cause of the flood victims in 16 north Bihar districts.

Accompanied by party General Secretary Amar Singh, Yadav said he would seek a reply from Orissa Chief Minister Navin Patnaik as to why action had not been taken against VHP workers for attacking Christians in his state.

Referring to Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee's indefinite sit-in agitation at the Nano project site in West Bengal's Singur, Amar Singh said the Uttar Pradesh government has provided land to the Tatas at Barabanki after they held direct talks with farmers.

"Anil Ambani, too, talked to the farmers directly for setting up his plant and I have no hesitation in saying that I will use my contacts for providing land for setting up of such industries in Uttar Pradesh and other parts of the country," Singh said.

Paswan for ban on RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal

Strongly condemning the attack on Christians allegedly by Sangh Parivar activists in Orissa, LJP leader and Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan on Tesday sought a ban on RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal. The Lok Janshakti Party will hold a demonstration in New Delhi on September four protesting the violence in Orissa which was "shameful and dangerous for national integrity", Paswan told reporters in New Delhi.

To a question as to why he opposed ban on SIMI, while demanding such an action against the Sangh Parivar outfits, he said "my suggestion is to set up an independent inquiry commission that will analyse the activities of various organisations and recommend ban if they are involved in any anti-national work".

The commission with social scientists and human rights activists as its member can study the role of various organisations in spreading terror and communal tension.

"If SIMI has to be banned, then why not VHP, Bajrang Dal or RSS," Paswan, who had shared power with BJP till 2002, shot back, adding that until there were evidences of SIMI's involvement in terror acts, it should not be banned.

On Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati declining to recommend CBI probe into the Kanpur blast incident in which two Bajrang Dal activists were killed, he said that it showed that the BSP supremo was going soft towards the BJP.

Paswan, who had shared power with BJP till 2002, hit back the saffron party for condemning his suggestion to grant citizenship to Bangladeshis in India, saying that it had failed to identify them when it led a coalition at the Centre.
