Tehelka says that it has obtained a copy of the report submitted by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) to the Supreme Court. The SIT was appointed by the Supreme Court to investigate the role of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and others in the riots that followed the burning of the Sabaramati Express on 27th February 2002. The favorable impression sought to be created by the associates of Modi and journalists sympathetic to him is strongly negated by the many critical observations of Modi and his administration contained in the report.
The report has squarely put the blame of carnage on Modi. All the charges against him stand vindicated in the SIT investigation report. The report practically confirms all the findings of the people’s tribunal and other Citizens committees who painstakingly investigated the Gujarat violence and called it a pogrom. politics-media alliance which can manipulate the mass thinking at will by publishing that ‘SIT has given clean chit to Modi’? If we cannot wake up to this stark fact of our society, such popular perceptions will be laying the ground for the mass murderers to keep ruling with the great appreciation form the communal forces and captains of industry and they can also manipulate the opinion of masses in their favor.
