Gadkari's Remark 'Obnoxious, Obscene', Says Congress


New Delhi, Jul 9 (IANS): The Congress hit out at Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Nitin Gadkari Friday, saying he should go to a psychiatric facility for the "obnoxious" remark that the ruling party was treating parliament attack convict Afzal Guru as its "son-in-law".

"Obscenity, obnoxiousness, obtuseness should not be dignified by a response. It is very obvious that the esteemed president of the BJP has lost it completely. The BJP should take pity and deposit him in a psychiatric facility," Congress spokesman Manish Tewari said here.

Addressing a rally in Dehradun Thursday, Gadkari had attacked the Congress over the delay in executing the death sentence of Afzal Guru.

"I want to ask Congress leaders is Afzal Guru your son-in-law...Why is he being given special treatment?" he had said. The BJP president said the Congress was a "party of people without guts" which could not fight terrorism.

Afzal Guru was awarded the death sentence for his role in the Dec 13, 2001 attack on parliament by a trial court in 2002. But he is yet to be hanged.

    Dear Gadkarji..If the ruling party is treating the Parliament attacker as their son in law,then you may approach the supreme court of the country to sue the Government.This is the way of a gentleman Party President.Obscenity,obnoxiousness and obtuseness needs psychiatric treatment.

    This is a bad remark by the President of a party,the largest one after the ruling congress .It is imperative,to know the situation that lead to the BJP's defeat in 2009 general election.Bad remarks by persons occupying high places in political party should defer making derogatory remarks of cheap quality against rival political party.Vajpayee,Manmohan Singh are the best examples for maintaining decency in language in their accusations.
