Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala) [India], March 15 (ANI): BJP leader V Muraleedharan criticized Tushar Gandhi, the great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, following his remarks about the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). Muraleedharan dismissed the claims made by Gandhi, stating that nobody had attacked or manhandled him.
He explained, "Nobody attacked or manhandled him (Tushar Gandhi). He went to a place and tried to propagate complete falsehoods, so, naturally, people who were there, protested, it was not a planned protest...they felt that what he was saying was not the truth."
Muraleedharan further compared the situation to another incident where the Kerala Governor was reportedly attacked. He stated, "You compare it to the incident where the Governor was manhandled and no case was there...in Kerala, under Pinarayi Vijayan, when a Governor is attacked, there is no case, but somebody who claims to have a lineage of Gandhiji, comes and propagates something...then there is a protest, the case is registered."
The BJP leader also accused Tushar Gandhi of using the situation for political gains. "It is political propaganda...he is a person trying to get a Congress ticket...this time also, he tried...but he didn't get one," he added.
