JODHPUR, SEPT. 12. The BJP today expressed its solidarity with the people of the U.S. at the time of the national crisis in that country in the wake of a series of terrorist attacks. The party appealed to all nations of the world to unite in fighting terrorism after formulating a joint strategy.

``In this hour of crisis, the BJP and the whole of India is with the U.S.,'' the party's central office-bearers, presided over by the national president of the BJP, Mr. K. Jana Krishnamurti, here said.

The 30-odd participants, who included the former national president, Mr. Kushabhau Thakre, central office-bearers, those in charge of States and heads of frontal organisations, observed a two-minute silence to pay homage to those killed in the terrorist attacks in the U.S.
