Going overboard

Published on: 

Sir — This refers to the report, “Modi, Sonia in no holds barred battle” (April 1). Fierce debates between major political adversaries are inevitable in election campaigning. But, unfortunately, these assume bitterness when one side questions the patriotism of its rivals. This is what Congress president Sonia Gandhi has done. Casting aspersions on the patriotism of BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi is  offensive and provocative.

Eyebrows were raised when Ms Gandhi retained her foreign nationality for 15 years until 1983, although she had married Rajiv Gandhi many years before. Shouldn’t those living in a glass palace avoid throwing stones at othersIJ
