"They (UPA) are saying that there were terrorist attacks like the one on Parliament and Aksahrdham when I was Home Minister, I say yes I accept it. But see what we have done in the case. We caught the conspirators, prosecuted them and convicted them," Advani said addressing an election rally in New Vadaj area of the city.

"One of the main accused was given death sentence. He appealed in higher courts but it was rejected. Still he has not been hanged. If he (Afzal) were Anand Singh or Anand Mohan then he would have been hanged by now. I would like to ask Manmohan Singh is it just because he is Afzal Guru he is not being hanged?" Advani asked.

Advani said if the UPA government is thinking that by delaying execution of Afzal Guru they will get votes, then they are wrong. "India's Muslims are saying that by doing this the government was defaming their community."

"I have talked to my Muslim brothers, they too are not for this decision. They say that government was taking their name and doing wrong things, we are not saying don't punish the terrorists," he said.

Advani, along with wife Kamla, son Jayant and daughter Pratibha, also held a roadshow on Monday in Kalol town, a new area added to his constituency after the delimitation exercise.
