No, that wasn’t necessary at all. Your point taken.
But that statue is of a Congress leader, built by the BJP government to pay homage to a freedom fighter. Is there anything wrong with that? Our children read only about the Nehru-Gandhi family, there are airports, roads, statues of the Nehru-Gandhi family (and of elephants and Mayawati in UP). This statue of Sardar Patel reminds us and our children that there were people other than Gandhi family who fought for the nation. Why insult it because the political party that built it does not relate to our ideologies? There are other areas to attack them.

Was that last line in your review really necessary?
