3. Lift the ban on the People´s War Group and the Maoist Communist Center.

For the punishment of all the political criminals responsible for launching the Godra riots and killing thousands of Muslims as well as those responsible for the brutal killing of hundreds of Muslims in the aftermath of the 1992-93 Babri Masjid communal riots.
