Ayodhya:
Vinay Katiyar is among the BJP leaders indicted by the Liberhan Report, which says, "there is no doubt that the second rung of the leadership was involved with bringing down the mosque...this includes Kalyan Singh, Uma Bharti, Vinay Katiyar..."
Speaking to NDTV, Katiyar said that the day the mosque fell was the proudest day of his life, but denied that his party planned the demolition.
The BJP's LK Advani has repeatedly asserted that December 6, 1992 "was the saddest day" of his life.
BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad tells NDTV that if Justice Liberhan does indeed indict the BJP's top leadership, as reported by NDTV, then the BJP holds that, " this is not a report...but a political indictment."
Prasad also criticized the report for its "conscious effort to exonerate Narasimha Rao." The former prime minister is described as "daydreaming" while accepting the BJP's assurances that the Babri Masjid would not be demolished. Other than that, though, Rao and the central government are given a clean chit by Justice Liberhan.
