Advani: Memory Loss or Shameless Liar?

"People have right to know why Pakistan has been sending terrorists to India since the UPA came to power at the Centre," the veteran BJP leader LK Advani said.

aiyo, I am shocked how can he lie, appearing so confident. Even the last trace of conscience to speak truth has left him, and he can lie freely like an actor. He forgot that the Parliament attack happened while he was the home minister. Not to mention other bomb blasts that most Indians have got used to. He forgot that Kashmir was burning with insurgency much more during NDA rule. I agree that UPA govt didn't pay the needed attention on internal security. But NDA did nothing better, with Advani himself being the home minister. At least Congress didn't politicize the issue when the parliament was attacked.

And Mr Advani, at least the UPA didn't send these terrorists back to Pakistan, as you did when our plane was hijacked.

I think Mr.Advani suffers from memory loss, or is a shameless liar. In either case, he is unsuitable for being Indian PM, playing with the destiny of a billion plus people.

Perhaps this is the trait of general politicians, and the reason why we have hated "politicians". During the last 10 years or so, we've had better leaders in Vajpayee, Dr Singh, Sonia Gandhi. We don't want to go back to the shrewd and liar kind again.

My understanding is that Pakistan sponsored terrorism has nothing to do with UPA/NDA. And so far, none of them have taken the steps required to strengthen internal security, and get Pakistan to dismantle the terror network. I am hopeful, that post 26/11, with Chidambaram as the Home Minister, some positive steps would have been taken to strengthen the internal security.

By the way, this is not his only blatant lie. He lies so openly about Indian economy having been better during NDA rule. The fact is just the opposite. "The economy has grown at an average of 8.9 per cent in the first four years [of UPA rule]. Compare this with the average of 5.8 per cent during the six years of NDA Government."
