Varanasi, Apr 5: Samajwadi Party activists here today burnt an&13;effigy of BJP president Rajnath Singh over the release of a CD&13;containing ''objectionable'' remarks against Muslims, besides visuals&13;of the Godhra train attack and the demolition of the babri masjid. Led by party leader Rajendra Trivedi, the SP activists and&13;students of Harishchandra Degree College burnt the BJP president in&13;effigy at Maidagin crossing.
&13;
Raising anti-BJP slogans, the SP activists alleged the saffron&13;party was ''stoking the communal fire to manage a few seats in the&13;assembly poll in Uttar Pradesh''. ''The release of the CD is one such&13;instrument to fan communal passions for deriving electoral benefits by&13;the BJP,'' Mr Trivedi said.
&13;
Despite the BJP withdrawing the controversial audio-visual CD&13;meant for election campaigning, Election Commission had yesterday&13;sought the copy of the concerned CD.
