Center must immediately arrest those who insulted Gandhiji if it has 'deshbhakti': UT Khader
Mangaluru: Urban development and district in-charge Minister UT Khader has demanded that if the central government is a patriot, it must immediately arrest the culprits who insulted Gandhiji by shooting at his effigy.
Speaking at a news conference here on Monday, he said that Mahatma Gandhi was recognized universally as a renowned Indian. Indians were called as people from Gandhi's land in foreign countries.
"Humiliating a person who had dedicated his life to the nation is anti-national. The task of glorifying Gandhi's killer Godse is being taken out systematically," he said.
