Dual face of BJP revealed: Atishi claims secret orders to demolish temples in Delhi

New Indian Express  

"A meeting of the Religious Committee was held on 22 November. In the meeting held on 22 November, it was decided to demolish many temples located in West Patel Nagar, Dilshad Garden, Seemapuri, Gokalpuri, New Usmanpur and Sultanpuri and a Buddhist temple located in Sundar Nagari. "Religious Committee used to come under the Home Minister of the Delhi government. But last year Delhi LG ordered that the demolition of any religious place is a law and order issue and hence it comes under Delhi LG and hence Delhi CM or Home Minister has nothing to do with it. The Chairman of the committee is the Principal Secretary of the Home Department and he sends the committee's suggestions directly to Delhi LG for approval," she added.
