Mr. Advani’s comment, which referred to the Budget as ‘communal’, smacks of his worthless statesmanship. Smallest of welfare measures towards the minorities blows his temper out of proportion. I won’t be shocked if some day he calls the preservation efforts of Mughal monuments also communal. Would somebody ask him: what was his party’s alleged involvement in UP hate-campaign CD meant for? Being a PM candidate of the party, he is expected at least to comment sensibly.
