BHUBANESWAR:(Visakeo)- The Swami Laxmananda Saraswati Sradhanjali Samiti on Saturday hit out at Union Home Minister P Chidambaram for his partial statements during his visit to the troubled Kandhamal on June 26.

“The visit and statements of the Union Home Minister has further aggravated the situation and it was major set back for the present peace process in the tribal dominated district,” Samiti president Dr Ratnakar Chaini and secretary Laxmikant Das said in a joint statement.

The Home Minister never look into tribal land encroachment issue, illegal construction of Churches, fake caste certificate and other issues but only, he through out his stay, tried to appease a particular community for vote bank politics, the Samiti said in a hard-hitting statement. Why both Orissa Chief Minister and Union Home Minister silent? They asked.

The Government has imposed restriction on entry of religious leaders into various relief camps but people from Missionary of Charity frequently visiting relief camps, the Samiti alleged adding said it has exposed the double standard of both State and Central Government
