New Delhi, Nov 28, TEN Network | Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday attacked Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over its MP Pragya Thakur’s controversial comments on Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse.
“Terrorist Pragya calls terrorist Godse, a patriot. A sad day, in the history of India’s Parliament,” Rahul Gandhi said in a tweet.
Pragya Thakur created a storm in Lok Sabha on Thursday when she referred to Godse during a debate on the Special Protection Group (Amendment) Bill. Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla expunged her remarks from the House records.
She had called Godse a patriot during the campaign for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. (HT)
