I am unsure about whether to pass judgement on whether Ishrat Jahan Raza, shot dead by the Ahmedabad police on June 15, was really a terrorist or not. I am skeptical about the claims by the Ahmedabad police that the 'terrorists' were connected with the Lashkar-e-Toiba and had a plan to assassinate the CM Narendra Modi. This is purely because of the timing. Barely a couple of days before this incident, Vajpayee had conceded that not removing Modi as CM following the Gujarat riots was a mistake and that it affected the BJP in the LS polls. Then a tug-of-war started within the Sangh parivar as various people in the BJP & RSS came out with statements on what Vajpayee actually meant and whether Modi was responsible for the BJP's defeat in the general election or not.
