With Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP launching a blistering attack, and his own party chief distancing itself from him, Congress leader Sam Pitroda on Friday swallowed his words over the 1984 riots – "Haan, hua toh hua [Yes, it happened, so what]". PM Modi led from the front to slam the Congress and Pitroda. Hua toh Hua." Amid protests by Sikh groups in New Delhi, Congress president Rahul Gandhi too condemned Pitroda. What Mr. Sam Pitroda has said is absolutely and completely out of line and is not appreciated.
