I hope the readers of rediff understand my argument! I think, rahul has fired such an effective salvo at Pakistan, that it has made everybody in that country talk about it. Let us evaluate his comments in the present circumstances. India is far ahead of Pakistan in terms of economic and cultural clout. India enjoys an image and status in the world's minset as never before. Compare this with Pakistan. They are at their lowest ebb possible. The world hates Pakistan. That is the image they enjoy today. What better time to get at your long-time adversary than this??? What Rahul has done with his comments, is to disintegrate Pakistani Psyche.
This is rare talent!The nation needs to acknowledge this! We need to come out of our conventional, hackneyed, thought process and welcome a new and young mind to lead our interests!

The statement by rahul gandhi was amateurish to the core. if he saya his clan was responsible for the creation of pakistan, it is true. but patting oneself on the back is ridiculous. he must not be under the belief that nehru clan is above the law in india. his statement shows that he feels their clan is indispensible to india. aprtly the congress politicians are to be blamed for this. better he learn fast lest he becomes a real liability for the present ruling govt.

politics in India will change only when the people change! When they dont, you need to sail with the wind! Hope I am clear.

...And he forgot 1962 humiliation in China war with Mr. Jawarharlal Neharu at the hlm!!!!!
This Gandy has been at roadshows in U P for about a fortnight. Nothing has happened. No worthwhile publicity. His media managers hit upon an idea to create a controversy to increase the limelight. Unfortunately, those fools did not expect this much negative publicity that fellow would attract. Now, his entire ance$try has been called into question.
