NEW DELHI: Union home minister Sushilkumar Shinde expressed regret over his "Hindu terror" remarks he made at the Congress meeting in Jaipur in January this year.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, Shinde said, "Since my statement created a controvery, I regret it. I had no intention to link terrorism with any religion."

Earlier in January, Shinde had accused the BJP and the RSS of fanning Hindu terrorism. He said, "Reports have come during investigation that BJP and RSS conduct terror training camps to spread terrorism ... Bombs were planted in Samjhauta express, Mecca Masjid and also a blast was carried out in Malegaon. We will have to think about it seriously and will have to remain alert."

This created a furore with RSS and BJP terming the remarks as "dangerous" and accused Congress of indulging in "destructive politics". The BJP called for the resignation of the home minister.

The BJP also threatened to launch an agitation against Shinde and boycott him in Parliament, which is convening on Thursday for the Budget session.

According to sources, Shinde had conveyed to BJP's Sushma Swaraj, the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha, that he will talk to her to find a way out on the saffron terror issue to ensure smooth functioning of Parliament.

Shinde's regret for his remarks is seen as a deal between the BJP and Congress to allow smooth functioning of the Parliament during the Budget session.
