SachDan Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 NEW DELHI: A Sikh journalist on Tuesday hurled a shoe at home minister P Chidambaram protesting against CBI's clean chit to senior Congress leader Shoe hurled at home minister P Chidambaram during a press conference in New Delhi.The shoe, however, missed its target. Chidambaram, who was addressing a press conference at the AICC headquarters in New Delhi, was surprised when Jarnail Singh, a journalist from Hindi daily Dainik Jagran, flung the shoe and an alert home minister quickly moved away to see it pass by him. "Please take him away," said Chidambaram who smiled and later added "gently, gently" as the journalist was escorted out of the press conference hall. Later, he was taken away by police. It is not clear whether any case has been registered against him against the backdrop of Chidambaram saying "I forgive him". As the action caused a flutter in the hall, a composed Chidambaram appealed to the reporters, "let not the action of one emotional person hijack the entire press conference. I have answered his questions to the best of my ability." It all started with the journalist asking him about the clean chit given by CBI to Tytler in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case under pressure from the government. "First of all let me make it clear that CBI is not under the home ministry. To my knowledge neither the home ministry nor any ministry of the government had put any pressure on the CBI," Chidambaram said. "CBI has only given a report to the court. It is for the court to accept or reject or ask for further investigation by CBI. Let us wait for the court decision," he said. As the journalist persisted with his questions, Chidambaram told him "no arguments, you are using this forum..." following which the journalist hurled his shoe. An unapologetic Singh said he will not apologise for his action, though his manner of protest might have been wrong. "My manner of protest might have been wrong, but I did not intend to hurt anyone," he said. Asked if he could have used some other manner to protest, he said, "for the last 25 years this has been happening. So what other method is left (to protest)". Earlier this month, CBI had given a clean chit to 1984 anti-Sikh riots accused Tytler and sought permission from the court for the closure of the case against the Congress leader. Police took the journalist into custody ad questioned him. Singh was taken to Tuglaq Road police station from the AICC headquarters where the incident took place. Jarnail Singh was later released by police after brief detention. Station house officer of Tughlaq Road Police station Anil Kumar Yadav told reporters that the scribe has been freed for the time being. "No case has been registered against him. He has regretted about his action," the official said, adding that the journalist was questioned for his action and then he was released. After being freed, the Sikh journalist, who has caused a flutter in the political circle, said the issue that he raised was an appropriate issue and the victims should get justice. This was the latest incident of show-throwing as a mark of protest against political leaders, including former US President George W Bush and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao. The Iraqi journalist who shot to worldwide fame for hurling his shoes at Bush last year was jailed for three years. Muntadhar al-Zaidi shocked the world by throwing his shoes at then US president George W Bush in December. Sitting in the third row at a press conference attended by Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, the reporter 'jumped up' and shouted "It is the farewell kiss, you dog." http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Journalist-hurls-shoe-at-Chidambaram/articleshow/4369381.cms 9-UhnXJ5OOU

SachDan Posted April 7, 2009 Author Posted April 7, 2009 Method was wrong, issue is right: Jarnail Singh NEW DELHI: The way was wrong but the issue was right, journalist Jarnail Singh said Tuesday after hurling a shoe at Home Minister P. Chidambaram over his responses to the Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) clean chit to Congress leader Jagdish Tytler on the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. "I just wanted to ask (Chidambaram) how he can be happy when one whole community is in deep anguish," Jarnail Singh told IANS over phone from the Tughlak Road police station. "I just wanted to ask how justice can be done but he was not interested in answering the question. "I do not think it (what I did) is the right way but the issue (1984 Sikh riots) is right," added the journalist from the daily Dainik Jagran.

veeru_rocks Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 exactly... hes a decent politician in our country which is rare to find nowadays.. He is clueless and is doing bidding for the corrupt congressi thugs his personal decency means nothing.....When you are in public life the people you represent you will be and you must be judged by that.. People like you get overwhelmed by personal character of individuals knowing this fact thugs conglomerate throw some clean politician to work as their peon while behind the scene they do all the dirty work.. Simple the jounralistdidn;t throw shoe at Chidambaram he threw shoe at the mentality which made sure that in 30 years butchering of 3000 sikhs resulted in no conviction fo any individual.. Chudamabaram as of today represents that thug machinery..

veeru_rocks Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Anyway bottomline that slipper was for congress thug machinery which made sure that noone not even a fly gets convicted for butchering of 3000 ( official number) sikhs... Chiudambram as of today represents that thug machinery hence he got one.. But it was intendted to slap congressi thug machinery
umpire Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 sad event. On top of it Jagdish T and Sajjan Kumar will get tickets from Congress. Oh well
veeru_rocks Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 When you defdn thug you are a thug.. Laloo Prasad claims he wud have crushed Varun gandhi under road-roller had he been home minister. Now this is serious threat of murder publicly.> as expected law enforcement took notice and an arrest warrant has been issued against laluu. Guess who comes to the defence of this thug none other than Chidambaram Union Home Minister and Congress leader P. Chidambaram, however, made light of Lalu Prasad's remarks. Addressing a press conference in Delhi, the home minister said: "These statements should not be taken literally." Which one should be taken seriously then only varun's.. Bloody thugs
veeru_rocks Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 See cpongresis thug are rethinking about Tytler and Sajjan kumar tickets all of a sudden.. power of shoe.. People should start throwing shoe at these thugs in delhi wherever they go.. this si the only way out to shame these people who made sure that not even a fly gets convicted for the mass murder of 3000 sikhs.. Well done boys
veeru_rocks Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 I just watched the video he didn;t even try to hit him it was just under-arm throw a symbolic one.. So even those who think that this thug chidamabaram is saint should know it was not meant to shame or hurt chidambaram a person but certainly chidambrama the home minister of congresis thug brigade was on target

This is just mind-boggling.. not even a fly have bene convicted so far in 25 years for genocide of 3000.. people are offended because shoew was thrown on yet another middle-class-hero chidambaram.. Big deal ..
Lurker Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 What a tool this moron is?? The Home Minister was patiently answer his question but I suppose this ass thought he deserved any extra attention. Would have been nice to see him publicly flogged really. All said Chidambaram is one of the better politicians that we have, and credit to him that he managed to keep his ice cool. Of course equally funny to see the right wing morons getting orgasmic over this.

Lurker Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 His words were I am happy that CBI has givne jagdidh tytler clean chit..... you forgot to add...as a Congress party member. His whole statement, and he has said this earlier too has been along the lines of - I wouldnt want to comment on a SC decision but as a Congress person I am happy for a fellow party member. What is wrong with that?? Is Advani ever gonna say he is unhappy that mass murder Narendra Modi got away scot free?? Deemag hai ke FedEx se bhejoon?? bloody 25 years 3000 murdered not even a fly convicted and a mere shoe throwing irks these thugs.. And joota throwing incident will get you what?? That too on a person that is not connected with 25 years 3000 murders in the first place? Why not have a go at Sajjan Kumar/Tytler themselves?? Some cartoon you guys are Needless to say the loonies who think like are already felicitating this chap as if he has done a fantastic thing. I think Chidambaram went wrong at one place, he should have let your beloved NSG on this chap's asss :haha:
