The clip of Aiyar’s remark in an interview with Chili Pill went viral on social media today.
“They are also a sovereign country (Pakistan), They are a respected nation. You cannot talk tough with them (Pakistan). But start the dialogue. You are walking with a gun, which yielded you nothing. Tensions are escalating. And if a made person comes there, what will happen to the nation? But if a mad person detonates a bomb at Lahore station, so within eight seconds, eight moments, the radioactivity will reach Amritsar,” quoted Aiyer.

With his remarks on Pakistan, Aiyar, who is no stranger to controversies, has given BJP fresh ammunition to attack Congress. Meanwhile, BJP leaders have launched a scathing attack, saying Congress’ Pakistan prem’ doesn’t seem to stop.
BJP’s national spokesperson, Shahzad Poonawalla, said that Mani Shankar aiyar, who is close to the first family, is displaying the muscle and strength of Pakistan on behalf of the Congress Party.

“He (Aiyar) says that Pakistan should be respected and talks should be held with them, the same Pakistan that keeps sending terrorists to our country. Now, when incidents like Pulwama take place, a befitting reply is given. Now “Congress ka haath’ is being seen with ‘Pakistan ke saath’. This is another example of the same, said Poonawala. *(Mexim News)
