seiko : I'm sure you know that indrani and her ilk will never blame the BJP whatever they do, and will always find fault with the congress, not matter what they do. Why do you want to waste several pages arguing about it, when the other person will never admit a mistake or change her view? You have pointed out the obvious hypocrisy of some people, and that should be enough, don't you think?
Yes, it is quite true that the same action performed by two different parties will elicit two different responses by people with certain cognitive biases. If the congress did this, there would be pungent cries of "sickularism", "Italian govt", "vatican" and so on. When the BJP govt does the same sensible thing, its kosher.
On topic, obviously this is the right thing to do, and I'm pretty sure they will not try any tricks like the previous time. That fiasco cost them in many ways, and their foreign minister had to resign over the idiocy.
