BJP put hoardings in Gujarat criticizing ‘Saffron terrorism” remark
Rajkot, 2 September, 2010

BJP has put several hoardings on main roads and junctions of Gujarat’s Rajkot city, criticizing central Home minister P Chidambaram’s controversial “saffron terrorism” remark.
The hoardings in Rajkot have photograph of Narendra Modi, Indian tricolor, and two lines, stating “Saffron is voice of patriotism – (but) Congress says (it’s) terror(ism).”
Exact slogan in rhythm in Gujarati is: “Bhagavo chhe deshbhakti no saad, Congress kahe chhe Aatankvad.”
There are two other types of hoardings. While one has Shree Somnath mandir photo, the other has Kargil war’s Tiger hill victory picture. The slogans are in rhythm with ‘balidan’, and ‘apaman’ words.
It should be mentioned that six Municipal corporations including Rajkot will be witnessing election in about month time, and it seems “Bhagava Aatankvad” will be one of the issues in political speeches of BJP leaders.
