Dehradun, Sept 9 (ZEENEWS.COM) The BJP today condemned the blasts in Malegaon in Maharashtra and said the attack has underscored the need for better management of "internal security" in the country.

A party official quoted senior BJP leader L K Advani as having told the party`s national executive that the Malegaon blasts coming in "quick succession" of the Mumbai bombing was a serious matter.

"The government should manage issues of internal security in a better manner," he quoted Advani as saying.

In his comments, Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi blamed the Malegaon explosions on the UPA`s "soft approach" towards terrorism.

"We condemn the attack and feel that it is high time the government took immediate review of the internal security. Such attacks are a result of the government`s soft approach towards terrorism," Naqvi said.

Put checks on Pak: Vajpayee
