Be brave Advaniji

The Jaswant-BJP-Advani-Kandahar issue has just become a political game with little national interest. Seldom it will have any impact on recession or price rise or drought condition, nor it will help country see 9% growth.
Then why so much noise? Reason is just a game of pull and push to gain political mileage.
From a layman’s view, whatever was done during the Kandahar plane hijack episode by the NDA government was absolutely right. It, at least, saved the lives of 160 people aboard in lieu of three dreaded terrorists.
Imagine, had the otherwise happened! Indian government disagreed to release three terrorists. And hijackers’ barbaric act against the hostages.
So, considering the gravity of the situation, were the steps taken by the then NDA government to swap the terrorists with hostages wrong?
If not, then why does Advani feel shy of admitting the truth? Mission Kandahar may not be glorious, but not a bad one. On the whole, it was successful. After all, we saved 160 families from suffering agony of losing their kith and kin.
