Batla House encounter case

"I remember one morning during breakfast, I saw Salman Khurshid crying on the TV. He was coming out of Sonia Gandhi's residence... He said that Sonia Gandhi was sobbing at the Batla House incident. She should have cried for Shaheed Mohan Sharma instead of the terrorists of the Batla house..."

"The fight against terrorism is a continuous process and the threat of extremism should be seen lightly. The human rights activists who criticize the actions of security agencies have, may be unwittingly, added to the confusion and the cause of anti-national elements from time to time."

"Doubting Thomases who perennially question established facts and events on mere suspicion, without a tinge of contrary evidence betray irrationality."

"The Policeman was killed and to say he was shot by his own kind, I think is a travesty."

"Whether it is Delhi, Ahmedabad, Bangalore or Mumbai, the chain that it (the probe) has produced has frightened us."

"So you say that policemen went there to shoot themselves?"

"People of Azamgarh deeply mourn the death of its two youths and regret the saffron mindset attempt to brand their town as the cradle of terror. People are aggrieved the way this is being followed as a part of a conspiracy."
