VHP leader Parvin Tagodia said that filmstar Salman Khan and MIM M.P Assaduddin Owaisi should be sent to Pakistan to have batted for the 1993 Mumbai blast convict Yakub Memon. Yakub is the lone convict on death row since twenty one years. But when reminded that M.P and filmstar Shatrughan Sinha, Supreme Court lawyer K.T. S Tulsi and director Mahesh Bhat have also written to President seeking clemency for Yakub, he sympathetically said ´they should not have done so´. This rakes the question if the few who do not speak the language of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad are to be sent to Pakistan, if not religion then what has been the ground for this selective deportation. Also why is there no offence that hurts national sentiments if actor Salman Khan and a democratically elected leader like Owaisi are discriminated on grounds of religion. Neither Salman nor Owaisi have been immigrants or refugees from Pakistan ever !

So why discriminate with them for raising a question.
