In 1983 Indira Gandhi Had Written A Letter Talking About Savarkar's Contribution: Anurag Thakur On Rahul's Savarkar Remarks
It was Congress government only when in 1983 Films Division released a 40-minute film on Savarkar and Indira Gandhi had written a letter talking about Savarkar's contribution, Anurag Thakur said.
New Delhi: Union Minister Anurag Thakur came heavy on Rahul Gandhi for his Savarkar remark saying, “he could never be Savarkar.” During a press conference on Saturday, following his disqualification from Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi denied apologising for his speech in London saying he was no Savarkar.
“Rahul Gandhi can never be Savarkar, he did not go for vacations every six months,” Thakur said, adding Savarkar, “who was dedicated for the service of the nation did not need vacation after every Parliament session.”
Targeting further, Thakur said that Rahul not only insulted Savarkar but also his grandmother Indira Gandhi and Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.
