According to the RSS, a plan has been hatched to implicate Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi in "a web of legal cases relating to the 2002 communal violence and some alleged encounter cases." A front-page article in its journal Organiser says the UPA is working overtime to implicate Modi "sometime between now and October this year."

"Hectic efforts are on to subvert every institution and influence every wing of the government to implement this nefarious design. Disgruntled officials of the Central services working in Gujarat have been used as pawns in this 'target Modi by hook or crook' operation," says the article by G.V.L. Narasimha Rao.

It alleges that IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt  who had filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court alleging that Modi instructed police officials to let Hindus vent their anger  was one such "conduit acting at the behest of the ruling Congress at the Centre." This, it says, has been established when "Bhatt and state Congress president Arjun Modhwadia tried to influence a junior police officer Karansinh Panth to depose against Modi."

"When Panth refused to yield, they threatened him saying that the state government would collapse in two months and the chief minister would be arrested. Gujarat Police have registered an FIR and are investigating the case. This episode clearly exposes the nefarious designs of the Congress party to destabilise a democratically elected government in Gujarat," the article says.

The pinko stain

An article in the Organiser slams the Centre's approach towards Maoism. It says that while Central forces shed blood in the killing fields of Dantewada and elsewhere, the government hobnobs with the friends of Naxalites in

New Delhi.

"The fact that the government has plans to deploy unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the Maoist-infested areas for gathering intelligence and assisting the security forces demonstrates there are people in the highest echelons who recognise the gravity of the threat posed by Left-wing extremists... Their efficacy in tackling Red terror, however, cannot be taken for granted, for they are up against subversive elements that have got entrenched in the system in the last seven years," the article says. It argues that the appointment of Binayak Sen on a Planning Commission panel was symptomatic of this subversion.
