VHP shows copy of ‘death resolve’
OUR CORRESPONDENT
Ranchi, Oct. 19: State unit of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) today claimed to have obtained documentary evidence that indicates involvement of the church in the murder of Swami Laxmananda Saraswati and his four associates at Kandhamal in Orissa on August 23.
Unit president, R.S. Rungta, made the copy the document available to the journalists and said: “the murder was pre-planned and was committed by missionaries involved in converting the religion of poor by way of allurement.”
The document is the copy of resolution taken in Parish meeting organised at Batikala village of Kandhamal district on May 25 at 11am under the chairmanship of a Father Prafulla Kumar Nayak.
Original resolution was written in Oriya, but VHP had printed the Devanagri transcript below and also translated the document in Hindi and English languages.
The document, signed by Ranjeet Kumar Nayak and 14 others, indicates that the missionaries had planned to eliminate the saint on the direction of Bishop, who was finding the saint a hurdle before the expansion of Christianity among Hindu tribals.
The document also indicates that the date of murder, August 23, the foundation day of VHP and Janmastami, was also pre-planned. It also mentions that the missionaries had also decided to conduct “Christian victory celebration” in all the Abbey circles of the Parish after the successful completion of the task.
Rungta said the copies of the document was made available to the chief minister of Orissa Naveen Patnaik, and was being released throughout the country to expose the “pseudo secular” forces who hold Bajrang Dal and VHP responsible for the violence in Orissa and other parts of the country.
The document has come at a time when it is being said that rebels were involved in murder of the saint and many political parties were demanding ban on the activities of VHP and Bajrang Dal for their involvement in attack on churches throughout the country
