Will Rahul quiz Modi on Sardar Patel?

The Congress has asked the RSS a question it will find difficult to answer: will you file a defamation suit against Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel for suggesting that RSS activities were responsible for Mahatma Gandhi's assassination?

Responding to the RSS threat to sue Rahul Gandhi for linking it to Gandhiji's assassination, the Congress has asserted that its vice-president was only echoing Sardar Patel's views.

These arguments have been posted on the party's official website. The BJP has not moved court yet but today filed a complaint against Rahul with the Election Commission.

Sardar Patel was a Congress leader but the RSS and the BJP have tried to appropriate him because of his known differences with Jawaharlal Nehru. This is not a new project and L.K. Advani has fashioned himself as Sardar Patel. But Narendra Modi has taken this discourse to a new level by presenting the towering Gujarat leader as an antithesis to Nehru's leadership.
