Had it been any BJP leader caught in the sting the RSS wouldn't have bothered. But the fact that Sanjay Joshi, a pracharak of RSS and a senior functionary, apparently gave in to temptation has proved to be the biggest embarrassment for the Nagpur-based organisation.
The television channels were keen on airing at least some part after blurring the faces and parts of body but hard lobbying and even requests by top Sangh functionaries have at least for the time being delayed the telecast of the CD. The channels could otherwise have easily shown the CD. After all, in the past so many such explicit things have been aired. But no one is sure that how long it can be stopped as any channel with a sagging TRP can show it.
Interestingly, the persons who have received the CD (apart from mediamen) are not willing to allow anyone else to see it as they are mostly RSS functionaries.
What Rajat Sharma meant?
On India TV he said that 'he had seen 1-1/2 hrs of the CD with great difficulty' and at last found that it was Sanjay Joshi on it. He said that he can't show it as it was very disturbing. Now what does that mean?
