Jaswant Singh's book has been banned in the state of Gujrat. Such an action shouldn't happen in a country which prides in calling itself the world's largest democracy. The expulsion of Jaswant Singh from BJP has exposed the tolerance levels of one of the largest political parties in India. But i think that BJP had no other choice as they needed to appease the radical, right wing nut-jobs in their party as well as those in RSS, on whose support the party depends upon. On the bright side, the whole fiasco has shown that there are reasonable and moderate minds in India who admire our great leader. Their numbers might be few, but they are there.
L.K.Advani inscribed the following message in the Visitorsâ Book at the Jinnah Mausoleum which caused an uproar in India
<b>âThere are many people who leave an inerasable stamp on history. But there are very few who actually create history. Quaid-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah was one such rare individual. In his early years, Sarojini Naidu, a leading luminary of Indiaâs freedom struggle, described Mr. Jinnah as an âAmbassador of Hindu-Muslim Unityâ. His address to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan on August 11, 1947 is a classic, a forceful espousal of a Secular State in which every citizen would be free to practise his own religion but the State shall make no distinction between one citizen and another on the grounds of faith.
âMy respectful homage to this great man.â </b>
