The BJP on Friday said it did not agree with Home Minister P Chidambarams offer to resign as it would mean a victory for Naxals.
The BJP does not want Chidambaram to resign at this stage. His resignation at this stage would mean a victory for Naxalites. He should not show his back because as the Home Minister of the country he is entrusted with the nations security and cant whimper like an injured soldier on a backfoot, BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said here.
Though the government has failed on all fronts,it is not the time for a senapati (commander) to step down… The BJP expects the Home Ministers stand,statement and leadership at this critical juncture to be inspirational rather than confessional, Rudy added. We understand his candid admission,but unfortunately he has become a victim of his own idiom where he admitted the buck stops at my desk. The BJP is not interested in knowing where the buck stops… whether in the Home Ministers Office or at Buddhas table in the Writers Buildings in Kolkata. The BJP,and the country,knows that at this critical juncture we in no way can afford to lose the war against Maoists.
Rudy said the BJP would stand by the government and would expect a fast-track, committed and long- lasting solution to the Maoist menace with a fight to finish response. He also said the Home Minister should come clean on whether his offer to resign was suo motu ,or he was under pressure after being denied a free hand in tackling the menace.
