SP targets BJP, says 'Modi on same route as Hitler'

With signs of a rift within the BJP quite evident following L.K. Advani's decision not to attend the ongoing national executive meet in Goa, the Samajwadi Party (SP) on Saturday criticized Gujarat Chief Narendra Modi, saying he is on the same route as former German dictator Adolf Hitler. Farooqi said that he thinks that a rift has been there within the BJP since 2002 itself. Farooqi also said that Modi would very soon sideline BJP President Rajnath Singh as well.
