1984 Sikh killings: Arun Jaitley asks will Rahul Gandhi oust Sam Pitroda

New Delhi, May 10 (UNI) Calling it “a matter of disgrace”, Union Finance Minister and senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley on Friday asked Congress president Rahul Gandhi would he oust his “Guru” Sam Pitroda for his “hua to hua” reaction over the 1984 Sikh genocide.

“Will the Congress President oust his 'Guru', who rubbishes the genocide of India's most patriotic community in 1984?” Mr Jaitley said on his Twitter post.

Brushing off the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, Indian Overseas Congress chief Sam Pitroda had said, "It happened in 1984, so what?"

Reacting to Mr Pitroda comments, Mr Jaitley said his “hua to hua” comment to the 1984 Sikh killings clearly showed that the grand old party has no remorse over the genocide.

“It is a matter of disgrace that the Congress Party has no remorse over the Sikh killings of 1984,” the Minister added.
