3 member BJP comm to visit riot-affected North 24-Parganas

BJP President Amit Shah today formed a three-member committee which would visit the riot- affected parts of North 24-Parganas district in West Bengal and submit a report on communal violence in the region.
The committee includes O P Mathur, Satyapal Singh and Meenakashi Lekhi, all Members of Parliament.
The formation of the committee is seen as an attempt on the part of the BJP to corner the ruling Trinamool Congress which it has accused of practising "Muslim appeasement politics", leading to communal violence.
A party statement said it would coordinate with state BJP chief Dilip Ghosh and national general secretary in charge of the state, Kailash Vijayvargiya.

Seeking the central government's intervention, Vijayvargiya had written to Home Minister Rajnath Singh, saying Hindus had been attacked and the state police was unable to control the situation.
