Govt's "softness" on  terrorism will be raised on the opening day.

NEW DELHI: The Mumbai blasts will rock Parliament on the opening day of the Monsoon session on Monday. The main Opposition party will be moving an adjournment motion. They would demand that all business of the House be stopped and the motion discussed, targeting the government for its failure to effectively tackle terrorism.

The BJP has done a good homework to list how the government's "perceived softness" against terrorism had boosted the morale of terrorist groups and given an opportunity to homegrown extremist outfits like the outlawed SIMI and naxalites to regroup. The Opposition MPs will also petition President APJ Abdul Kalam on the Mumbai blasts and the price rise issue. A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting held at former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee's residence on Thursday evening.

The latest of the Rajinder Sachar Committee prescription---Muslim headcount in judiciary----has been lapped up by the BJP and is all set to target the government on the issue in the Monsoon session, beginning from Monday. The Opposition party termed it "a product of a perverse mind set".

Reacting to media reports that the Justice Sachar Committee appointed by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has sought a head count of the members of the Muslim community in the judiciary, BJP general secretary Arun Jaitley said "the functioning of the Sachar Committee has established that it is a product of a perverse mind set. The Committee earlier tried to destroy the professionalism of the Indian Armed Forces by seeking to communalise them.”
