Bharatiya Janata Party spokesperson Prakash Javadekar countered the charge saying Muslims and all sections of the society have left the riots behind in Gujarat, adding that Khurshid used such language in in "desperation".
"In desperation and frustration, Congress' Salman Khurshid is using such language which we condemn," he told reporters Wednesday.

"Hence they are upset and this is what comes out always," he said.
"They want to keep the issue alive because they have nothing else to talk about," he added.
