Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has described the news items in a section of media about its so-called support to the Naxal outfits, as completely baseless and derogatory. The ABVP condemned such media reports. In a statement Shri Suresh Bhatt, national general secretary of ABVP said instead of doing its main job of nabbing the naxalites the Maharashtra Police is trying to mislead the society. He said the ABVP has been fighting against the menace of naxalites at various places of the country for many years and many of its workers have been killed in this fight. ?The ABVP demands the Union Home Ministry and the Maharashtra Police to clarify these incidents and also warn the section of the media which has been airing such baseless reports to refrain from publishing such wrong news. The ABVP also appeals to the people of the country not to give ear to such rumours and unitedly fight against the naxal menace,? Shri Bhatt said in a statement.
