Less saffron, more spice

Article Abstract:

Lal Krishna Advani, president of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is the main opposition political party in India at the moment, visited Pakistan in the beginning of 2005. During his visit, Advani projectred a moderate approach towards the country and appreciated some of the views of Mohammed Ali Jinnah, founding father of Pakistan. Back home, other leaders from BJP are demanding resignation of Advani on the grounds that he has committed some sort of sacrilege by glorifying the traitor. BJP is known for its religious fervor and dons saffron clothes as a symbol of its fundamentalism.
