Welcome to communist bastion of west bengal.. ************************ Unrepentant Buddha says carnage by cadre justified Saugar Sengupta | Kolkata Blames Centre for delay in sending CRPF West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee sees nothing wrong about the 72-hour mayhem by CPI(M) cadre in Nandigram. Justifying the action of his party's militia -- locally known as Harmat Brigade -- that has brutally silenced all voices of protest in Nandigram, Bhattacharjee on Tuesday said the Trinamool Congress-backed Bhoomi Ucchhed Pratirodh Committee (BUPC) had to pay for its "sins over the last 11 months". Bhattacharjee, addressing mediapersons at Writers' Building, was unfazed by the storm of protest sweeping the State. "No one questioned when their (BUPC) men kept driving our men out of their homes for the last 11 months. But now there are many people coming out in protest when there is retaliation," he said. At the same time, he tried to disown responsibility by saying, "The unfortunate incident could have been avoided had we got the CRPF a few days earlier." He, however, had no answer when asked why the Central forces were not deployed for 12 hours on the night of November 11 when they were made available to the State Government. Asked whether he was justifying the CPI(M) cadre's conduct in forcefully re-occupying their lost political territory, Bhattacharjee retorted, "They have been paid back in their own coin. Our supporters, after remaining away from their homes for 11 months, were desperate to return. They risked their lives and returned home." Who paid them back "in their own coin?" Bhattacharjee claimed it was villagers driven out of Nandigram by the BUPC who had retaliated. "Whatever happened during the last three days was a retaliatory step taken by the local people," he said. Building up on his party colleague's earlier claim that Union Minister PR Dasmunsi had blocked the sending of CRPF to West Bengal, Bhattacharjee said, "I had asked for the forces on October 27 but the Centre refused on the pretext of Gujarat elections. Finally, when the CRPF arrived, it was too late." Asked why his police had failed to tackle the situation, Bhattacharjee said he had not sent the police to Nandigram because he "did not want a repetition of the March 14". On the casualties of the March 14 police firing, Bhattacharjee said his Government would pay compensation to the next of kin of the 14 people who lost their lives. PTI adds: Returning from his Russia visit, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Tuesday spoke to Bhattacharjee over telephone to ascertain the latest situation in Nandigram. Singh's call came when Bhattacharjee was going to Raj Bhavan to meet Governor Gopal Krishna Gandhi after holding a Press conference at Writers' Building. [h4]No Maoist in Nandigram: Home Secy[/h4] Kolkata: Despite the West Bengal Government and ruling CPI(M)'s claim of Maoist presence in Nandigram, State Home Secretary PR Roy on Tuesday said no Maoist was arrested from there. "No Maoist was arrested from Nandigram,'' the Home Secretary told media at the State Secretariat. CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat as well as the party's State leadership have claimed that Maoists were active in Nandigram and accused Trinamool Congress of taking their help to create trouble in the area. Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee denied the charge. She said that by raising the bogey of Maoists, the CPI() was trying to protect the Buddha Government which had 'unleashed State sponsored violence''.
