Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Friday said senior party leader Sam Pitroda must apologize for his "hua to hua" comment about the 1984 anti-Sikh riots and said his remark was completely "out of the line". Gandhi said the 1984 riots was a "terrible tragedy" that caused "tremendous pain" and those responsible for it have to be punished.

"I think what Sam Pitroda Ji said is completely out of line and he should apologise for it. I think 1984 was a needless tragedy that caused tremendous pain," Gandhi said in a Facebook post after Pitroda's remarks kicked up a political storm.
