Vadodara, Feb 28 : Former BJP leader Nalin Bhatt on Monday lashed out at Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and senior leader LK Advani for not visiting Godhra on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the train burning incident, which triggered one of the the worst communal riots in India.
“Modi has time to visit China but does not have time to visit Godhra for remembering the karsevaks (who were burnt alive in the incident) because of whom BJP captured 42 seats out of a total of 50 Assembly seats from Central Gujarat in the 2002 Assembly elections,” Bhatt told reporters here.
“Advani too went to pay tribute to Mohammad Ali Jinnah at his tomb in Pakistan but does not have time to visit Godhra,” he added.
