The BJP meeting on Tuesday acquiresadded significance in light of its young star Varun Gandhi's hate speech inPilibhit. He has come under fire from theCongress, the Election Commission and some of his own party leaders forinsulting the minority community and speaking dismissively about the father ofthe nation.

"All the Hindus stay on this side and send theothers to Pakistan. This is the Lotus hand, it will cut their throats afterelections. They have names such as Karimullah, Mazurullah. If you see them inthe night you would get scared," he had said in his rally on Tuesday.

Varun also said that anybody who dares to raise his handon a Hindu, Varun Gandhi will chop his hand off. These remarks have made thegrandson of Indira Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru's great grand son in an extremeright avatar.

These shocking remarks by the young Gandhi, who isfighting his first election from Pilibhit, led to the Election Commission issuehim a notice. His father's party the Congress too jumped on the opportunity topoint out the contrast to his cousin Rahul and target the BJP.

"It is not just immoral but also illegal. But whyare you surprised? This is the ideology of the party that he belongs to and itis very shocking and condemnable," Congress spokesperson Abhishek ManuSinghvi said.

The BJP found it hard to defend Varun Gandhi. Varun, inhis official reply to the District Magistrate, may have denied he had madecommunal remarks, but for this novice politician here is one important lesson-- the camera doesn't lie.
