Nationalist Congress Party leader Praful Patel has joined the controversy over the 2002 Gujarat riots, sparked off by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's comments in a television interview on Monday.

On Wednesday, Patel said, "I don't want to comment on anybody's interview, but the fact is we are in an era where we believe the judicial system is the final recourse to getting justice on any issue or to bring a finality to any controversy."  

"And if the judicial system has given a pronouncement, then we ought to respect it. We need to not question it further. Politics is not just about the judicial system. Politics is also about perception and I think it is important for political parties to go to the people based on what we believe in," he said.

Now let's sit back and await the political storm.
