After an NIA Court acquitted all of the five accused in the Mecca Masjid blasts case,including wami Aseemanand and Sadhvi Pragya,The Bharatiya Janata Party on Monday blasted the Congress Party by accusing them of defaming and maligning the Hindu religion, calling it vote bank politics.

At a Presser, BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra said, "Today, the face of the Congress has been masked. In the name of Hindu terrorism, the Congress, which was doing the job of defaming Hindus has been exposed today. The Congress has been exposed as never before."

He asked Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi to apologize for defaming the Hindu religion, and further added that they had coined the term "Hindu Terror".

"Now after the court verdict on Mecca Masjid blast, the party stands exposed. Will Rahul Gandhi take out a midnight march with a lighted lamp and apologise for defaming the Hindu religion?" he asked.

Meanwhile Owaisi and many Congress leaders have questioned fairness of the investigation and the NIA Court.
