New Delhi:
Notwithstanding the reluctance of Madhya Pradesh government to hand
over the probe into the murder of RSS activist Sunil Joshi, an
accused in Samjhauta Express blast case, the Centre is all set to
ask National Investigation Agency (NIA) for a thorough probe
relating to Hindu terror groups.
Union Home Ministry is expected to issue a notification soon in the
cases, where right-wing terror groups' involvement has surfaced, to
the NIA, which is already probing the blast in Samjhuta Express --
rail link between India and Pakistan -- in which more than 65 people
were killed, official sources said.
The Ministry has already sent a proposal to the Law Ministry to seek
its legal opinion in the wake of absence of a nod from the BJP
government in Madhya Pradesh, the sources said.
