Kerala Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan Wednesday asked the central government to take action against those responsible for the demolition of the Babri Masjid in 1992.

Talking to reporters here after the weekly cabinet meeting, Achuthanandan said the responsibility of the government does not end by tabling the Liberhan Commission report in parliament.

'Politicians behind the incident like (former prime minister Atal Bihari) Vajpayee, (senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader L.K.) Advani and Murli Manohar Joshi did a great crime by raising communal passions. The government should take appropriate action so such a thing is not repeated again in the country,' he said.

Achuthanandan also did not spare Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who was the finance minister in 1992.

'The prime minister and the Congress should apologise for the incident,' he said.
