It is most unfortunate that there was news in the internet for a few hours that Mandela wad dead! Later only it was confirmed that he was on a life support system!! Unfortunately, Gujarat Congress fell a prey to this and issued an inopportune statement. Opportunistic politics begets only such actions.
