At the Bharat Bachao rally organized by the Congress on Saturday, former party president Rahul Gandhi's statement on Savarkar has created a ruckus in the country's politics. During this rally, Rahul Gandhi attacked the Modi government and said, 'I am not Rahul Savarkar, I am Rahul Gandhi and I will never apologize for telling the truth'. Regarding this, RSS leader Indresh Kumar says that even after many births, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi cannot become 'Savarkar' and should not insult Mahatma Gandhi by using his surname 'Gandhi'.

Earlier in his statement, Savarkar's grandson Ranjit Savarkar said that no one should use derogatory words about him (Veer Savarkar). The government should take criminal action against Rahul Gandhi. Shiv Sena has already raised an objection to this statement of Rahul. Shiv Sena said that Savarkar should not be insulted. Significantly, in Maharashtra, Shiv Sena is the government with Congress and NCP.

BJP has also targeted Rahul Gandhi for this. According to news agency PTI, BJP spokesperson GVL Narasimha Rao said, 'Rahul Gandhi's apt name is Rahul Jinnah. Your Muslim appeasement politics and mindset makes you worthy of Mohammad Ali Jinnah, not Savarkar.'
