CPI(ML) general secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya attacked the UP government saying,"the manner in which Gujarat was allowed to burn, similar thing happened in Muzaffarnagar in SP government."
He was addressing a 'dharna' in front of Vidhan Bhawan.
Bhattacharya claimed that as a part of its strategy BJP wanted to "trigger communal riots" in the state and country ahead of the Lok Sabha elections.
He alleged that riots were organised and a fake video clipping was loaded on the internet.
