In Farrukhabad today, Salman Khurshid said diplomatically, "It's a closed chapter." He gestured to indicate a book being closed. Tomorrow, this part of central Uttar Pradesh votes in the third phase of the election - another three will follow in the next few weeks. The Law Minister's declaration of a sub-quota for Muslims was seen as a violation of the model code of conduct, and provoked censure from the Election Commission and his own party. The controversy ended with his letter to the Commission, expressing his regret over "the unfortunate incident."
