even though the historic facts the author mentioned in his article may be true,but the theory that Advani fallen into the trap is nonsense!.
In fact Advani has shown a states man like attitude and reminded pakistanis that they should try to become secular and tolerent....which is also in the interst of India.
I firmly believe that majority of indians don't care for these so called hindu hard line organisations.This article showes how frustrated are some manuvadi people (like murali manohar joshi..etc)with Advani's leadership.
But there is a political space for BJP if it acts sensibly.Its time for BJP to regroup itself and become a moderate center right party with moderate hindu identity and good economic polacies.
