NEW DELHI, AUG 10 (PTI)
The Nationalist Congress Party today demanded effective
implementation of the findings of the Nanavati Commission and urged
the Centre to revise the Action Taken Report and take appropriate
legal action against those indicted by it.
"We do not want that the Commission become an omission... We appeal
to the Union Government to revise the ATR and take appropriate legal
action against all those indicted by the Nanavati Commission", Party
General Secretary D P Tripathy told reporters.
He reminded of the "glorious sacrifices" and historic contributions
of the Sikh community and said "it is our duty to ensure that
justice is not denied to our Sikh brethren." Asked if the NCP was
demanding the resignation of Union Minister Jagdish Tytler who was
indicted by the Commission, he said "we don't want to name anybody,
but action must be initiated against those who have been named in
the report".
However, he said it was for the government to decide on the
resignation issue adding "we do not want to pre-judge the judicial
process. We want judicial procedure to be transparent and
effective".
