The BJP is officially a joke now. Their arguements make absolutely no sense and have resorted to petty name-calling and personal attacks. While Gandhi was a follower of Lord Ram his philosophy, teachings and ideology were independent of any one religion. You can be an Atheist, Hindu, Buddhist or Muslim and still believe in Gandhian values. Secondly the Gandhi surname has nothing to do with Mahatma Gandhi himself. Sonia Gandhi and her children have taken the surname of Rajiv Gandhi who got it from his father Feroz Gandhi who was certainly not related to Mahatma Gandhi. If my surname is Singh does it mean I have to believe in Bhagat Singh's philosophy and if I dont I'll have to reject the Singh? The BJP finding itself politically marginalisd is making a brouhaha out of a non-issue. They probably hoping to incense people and have a few riots here and there so they can capitalise on it. Hope peole have better sense than to oblige this silly, bigoted party.
