Political turmoil after Rahul Gandhi's statement on Veer Savarkar | Full PC | ABP News

After sparking a political controversy with his remarks against Hindutva ideologue V.D. Savarkar, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi refrained from making further comments against Savarkar at his public address in Shegaon in Maharashtra’s Buldhana district on Friday.

The Congress MP from Wayanad instead targeted the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a more general manner, claiming that the saffron party had spread “hatred and fear in every corner of the country.”
