The Minister of State for Civil Aviation Jayant Sinha,  is in eye of a storm ever since pictures of his garlanding lynching convicts at  his hazaribagh residence in Jharkhand  made the headlines. The minister’s action has left  BJP and the government at the centre red- faced.

Congress president Rahul Gandhi has reacted sharply to the incident involving Sinha. He has supported a petition against Union minister Jayant Sinha that sought withdrawal of his Harvard alumni status.

“If the sight of a highly educated MP and central minister, Jayant Sinha, garlanding and honouring criminals convicted of lynching an innocent man, fills you with disgust, click on the link and support this petition,” Gandhi said on Twitter, urging people to sign the petition against Sinha.

Interestingly, Jayant Sinha’s father, Former Union Finance Minister   Yashwant Sinha reportedly expressed his disapproval of his son’s action in a tweet
