Liberhan report distorted, should be scrapped: BJP

New Delhi, Dec 8 : The Liberhan Commission report on Babri demolition is baseless and communal and should be scrapped, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Sushma Swaraj told the Parliament Tuesday.

Participating in the two-day debate on the report in Lok Sabha on its second day, she said: 'The report is distortion of facts. Every word of the report is communal. This report would sow the seeds of riots. It also denounces the Muslim organisations.'

'This is not a fair and just report. We dismiss this report,' she said.

She said the commission failed to prove the demolition was preplanned and urged the Speaker to scrap the report.

'We had expected the report to clarify facts. But it did not,' she said, adding that the government took 17 years to table the report instead of three months.

'Yes, Babri structure was demolished but it was not preplanned,' Swaraj said, adding that there was nothing in the report against then Prime Minister late Narasimha Rao.

'We are ready to take punishment if we deserve that for the demolition but don't try to evade the problem. The solution will only come out of society by talks between two communities and not court,' she said.

'When the Hindus are born the name of Ram is taken and when they die the chants in their funeral procession are also of Ram,' Swaraj said.

The Liberhan commission report indicts 68 people for the demolition of the Babri Masjid on December 6, 1992 in Ayodhya.

Among the indicted are former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, BJP leaders L K Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi and the then Uttar Pradesh chief minister Kalyan Singh.
