Nctc Meeting

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh called the National Integration Council meet in the aftermath of the communal clashes in Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradesh, in which nearly 50 were killed and over 40,000 displaced. Following is the statement read out by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa:

The government's hardsell of its new, diluted National Counter Terrorism Centre or NCTC did not impress many at a chief ministers' meet in the capital today. But it did spark a political pow-wow on the sidelines of the meeting. Narendra Modi versus P Chidambaram.

Opposing the setting up of the anti-terror body NCTC in its present form, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh today said it violates the federal structure of the Constitution.

Voicing reservations over the full-fledged operationalization of the ambitious NCTC, Congress-ruled Karnataka today said the body should not be given "unbridled powers".

Holding that the revised draft order on NCTC suffers from several "serious flaws" and "arbitrary" provisions, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today asked the Centre to seek Parliament's nod through a wider debate for creating the federal anti-terror agency.

Chief Ministers from across the country are meeting for a conference on internal security in the national capital today. At the meeting, the government is attempting to hard sell a diluted version of the proposed anti-terror body, the National Counter Terrorism Centre or NCTC.

The government is expected to attempt another hardsell of anti-terror body, the National Counter Terrorism Centre, to the states, many of which have been opposed to setting up such a hub. A new strategy to counter Naxalism will also be discussed at the one-day meet on internal security.
