The BJP government in Karnataka today reiterated its opposition to the National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC) in its present form.
Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister R Ashoka noted that BJP-ruled states are opposed to the NCTC, as also Bihar and Tamil Nadu.
The NCTC is "an attempt to snatch the rights of the state (vis-a-vis policing powers)", he alleged.
