Nagpur: Bharipa Bahujan Mahasangh leader Prakash Ambedkar Sunday questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari and RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on what he claimed were “lapses” that led to the February 14 Pulwama terror attack which killed 40 CRPF personnel.
Addressing a press conference here, he claimed an “extremely urgent” military document from Kashmir dated February 8, just a few days before the Pulwama attack, had asked forces to sanitise any area before their movement.
“It stated that there is a possibility of attack on convoy and asked for scrutiny on the route of the convoy,” he claimed. “We want to ask the government whether the cabinet discussed this issue after receiving this important document.
Did the security and defence committee of the cabinet discuss this issue? Or whether this document was deliberately neglected by the government,” he asked. “Similarly, there is system in place for the convoy to bear the impact of an attack. Was this system in place in the concerned attack?” he further questioned.
