Concern over Centre’s failure to act against Gujarat rioters

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: Eminent speakers at a seminar on “Ramifications of the Tehelka expose on Gujarat” voiced deep concern over the Centre’s failure to act on “incontrovertible evidence against perpetrators of the Gujarat carnage”.

The seminar was organised jointly by the Delhi Union of Journalists and the Kerala Union of Working Journalists.

‘The truth is out’

Noted jurist Prashant Bhushan said the importance of the Tehelka expose on the Gujarat carnage was that “for the first time, we have the truth coming straight from the mouths of perpetrators of the crime, and seeing them confessing it. The expose is also a graphic confirmation of reports of various other commissions and human rights bodies who had probed the incidents”. Eminent writer Arundhati Roy said the age of moral outrage was over. The Gujarat carnage was very much a part of the election campaign engineered to polarise voters on communal lines as Mr. Modi had lost earlier elections, she said.
