Re: # 2

The BJP is bad, of course. However the article here is not about that.

Was it alright for Rahul Gandhi to twist facts to his advantage?

Is it okay for the Congress Party to nurture sycophancy as a symbol of patriotism?

The unfortunate fact, is that the Indian opposition has nt grown up at all.

The BJP, is but a representative of religious fanatic forces that do not want to openly call for votes based on majoritism. Unfortunately however, the BJP, is an international shame on the country. Recently, there have been allegations that the police in a BJP state were killing people belonging to a minority religion as `encounter killings`. And a tasteless BJP MP was arrested for trying to smuggle a woman abroad allegedly for money.
At all given opportunity, the BJP tries to split the country on the basis of religion. The congress, however lethargic it might be, has nt yet openly taken to religion based politics.

This is not to take away any credit from the other regional and semi regional parties, that are always on the look out to divide people on the basis of caste, and make corruption money more and more daringly.

The Congress, for all its real and imagined faults, at least has a leadership that has not allowed any of the vicious slander to stick to it. Compared to a Jayalalitha, Sonia Gandhi must be a pauper.

Compared to a Pramod Mahajan`s son, Rahul is nothing short of a saint.
Indeed, that comparison just about sums up it all.
