Hindu right wing outfit Sanathan Sanstha, suspected of being involved in the Diwali eve blast in Goa, might have faced a ban if the Maharashtra government had acted on a proposal forwarded by the Anti-Terrorism Squad last year.
"ATS had forwarded the proposal to the government but I am not aware of its status," said ATS chief K P Raghuvanshi. Karkare had forwarded the proposal some time before he was gunned down by terrorists in 26/11 terror attacks.
To proscribe an organisation, the state government has to forward its proposal to the centre which takes a call after considering the recommendations. This had not been done, official sources said.
