Cong must apologise for coining 'saffron terror' term: BJP

After five members of a right-wing organisation were acquitted in Mecca Masjid blast case, BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra demanded that the Congress apologise for coining the term 'saffron terror'. Patra said the Congress had defamed the Hindu religion by levelling terror allegations. Congress denied coining the term 'saffron terror', adding it believes terrorism cannot be associated with religion.
