Former Babu in the Union Home Ministry RVS Mani claims there was a "fixed match" between the Congress party and Pakistan's ISI regarding the narrative around the Samjhauta Express blast.
He further alleged that if Ajmal Kasab had not been captured alive during the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, those attacks too could have been wrongly projected as a "Hindu terror" incident.
In his podcast interview with ANI, Mani claims he was tortured by CBI during UPA era and also that he always believed from the beginning that the Malegaon blast case was false.
He alleged that there was a pre-planned approach behind the investigation and referred to the arrests of Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, Lt Col Prasad Shrikant Purohit and Major Ramesh Upadhyay.
"The Samjhauta blast case could have been avoided," he said. Answering a question, Mani said - "I have written a book called 'Deception' .. it is a novel, a fiction. If you read the novel you will make out how Mecca Masjid, Samjhauta blast and ... all these blasts could have been avoided.
"For Samjhauta blast case, we had a man living in Noor Nagar ... somewhere in Jamia area (in Delhi). But still it happened. All the perpetuators got released in 14 days. Input was that the ISI had given contract to an organised crime syndicate in Karachi headed by Arif Qasmani and after this happened, the Govt of India (UPA) claimed it as a Hindu terror".
"Arif Qasmani did not get payment from ISI because ISI was saying ... see Govt of India says it is Hindu teror; so why should we pay".
Mani further says - Qasmani even went to the US media and claimed that he has done the blast; but Govt of India under Manmohan Singh kept saying - "No, our people have done it".
He also claims someone sitting in Pakistan did not want the rise of Col Purohit.
"You are perfectly right," he told the questioner adding, at the young age of 34, Purohit became a selection grade Lt Col. He would have gone to become at least a Corps Commander if not the chief of army. He was very bright ... competent officer. People in Pakistan did not want him to come to that level."
The former Under Secretary in the Home Ministry claimed that most Pakistani (unofficial delegation like Aman Ki Asha and all ) bring drugs to India.
He even made a sensational observation that the English coach (of Pakistan) Bob Woolmer, "who resisted drug trafficking was later killed under a suspicious cirumstances...All the dots have to be joined".

Bob Woolmer, the 58-year-old coach of the Pakistan cricket team, died on March 18, 2007, in Kingston, Jamaica.
He was found unconscious in his hotel room hours after Pakistan's shock defeat to Ireland in the 2007 Cricket World Cup. "It is the official policy of Pakistan to push drug into India," he said.
"People to people contact (between India and Pakistan) is the biggest fraud ....," he added.
On Samjhauta, he said - "It was a fixed between INC ... Indian National Congress and ISI".
He further said - entire attempt was to make it a "Hindu attack".
"If Ajmal Kasab was not held .... today it would have been a Hindu terror attack".
Mani alleged that in June 2006, senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh asked him to identify cases involving "Hindu terrorism."
According to Mani, he informed the Congress leader that no such cases existed in the records available with the Home Ministry at that time. Mani also said during the stint of Shivraj Patil; it was Digvijaya Singh who used to summon officials, give them instructions.
