Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, while addressing a meeting of the National Integration Council on Monday, appealed political parties and the media not to "politicise communal tension"

Referring to the Muzaffarnagar riots, he said a minor incident had blown up into a major riot, and added that the state had witnessed several riots in the last three years.

The state government should take strict action against elements fomenting communal tension, said the PM, adding that the administration should ensure an environment in which members of all communities felt safe.
