New Delhi: Nusli Wadia, who is the grandson of Jinnah and a businessman man close to the BJP, has broken his silence on the Jinnah controversy.
In an interview to CNBC TV18 that could cause more embarrassment for the BJP, Wadia lashed out at its decision to expel Jaswant Singh and ban the book, saying he was appalled.
"One suggestion the BJP is making is that you financed the book, that you made Jaswant Singh do it to glorify your grandfather. Is that accurate?" anchor of the show, Vir Singhvi asked.
"Using intemperate language on television is not allowed, otherwise I would really say something of the sort. That is nonsense, absolute nonsense. I mean, is a man going to spend five years writing a book for Nusli Wadia? What has Nusli Wadia got to do with Jaswant Singh? We are friends. Rightly, my grandfather is my grandfather, that is not going to change. The fact that I am proud of my grandfather is not going to change. I do not need Jaswant Singh to write a certificate for my grandfather," lashed out Wadia.
When asked about the debate on Jinnah that the BJP has been conducting, Nusli Wadia said he defends the individual right of a person to pen his thoughts.
"When you see this debate happening, when many of the people involved are close friends of yours, how does it feel, looking at it? Is it really your grandfather that they are discussing?" Singhvi had asked.
"In the case of Jaswant Singh, I do not think anyone has the right to say that he does not have the right to write a book," Wadia said.
"Mr Advani is one of your closest friends. You have known him for thirty, forty years. How does it feel when you see him in this situation?" Singhvi asked Wadia.
"Sad, very sad," Wadia replied.
Nusli Wadia is known to have been close to many leaders in the BJP. He expressed anguish over the reactions exhibited by party members in the wake of the book Jaswant Singh published on Jinnah and history.
Wadia was asked, "Given that you knew them so well, are you surprised by the way the BJP behaved?"
He replied, "I am surprised, yes. I am very surprised, saddened and appalled."
