Patna: Union Minister Giriraj Singh has also jumped into the controversial statement about Aurangzeb and Godse, which started from Maharashtra. In Chhattisgarh on Friday, Union Minister Singh described Nathuram Godse as a "son" (worthy son) of India. "Mahatma Gandhi's assassin (Godse) was not an aggressor like Mughal rulers Babur and Aurangzeb. He was born in India.

At the same time, Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal has also surrounded Giriraj Singh by tweeting. "Giriraj Singh: Godse is India's 'son' (worthy son) assassin, born in India unlike the Mughals. By this statement, many people cannot call you a 'worthy son' of India. The killers cannot be separated from their origins. I hope the Prime Minister and Amit Shah condemn this statement."

Union Minister Giriraj Singh accused the Bhupesh Baghel-led Congress government in Chhattisgarh of spreading terror and encouraging religious conversions. Giriraj Singh said, "When the BJP government comes to power in the state, it will make a strict law regarding religious conversions. Conversion will take place under this law. If there is any other conversion, then he will be sent to jail. This is a government for religious conversions. Action is taken under NSA against those opposing conversion. This government is spreading terror. Religious conversions are being encouraged. There is a conspiracy going on in the country. Conversion of tribals and non-tribals is being done here. The state government should understand that India is India as long as there are sanatis of India. Democracy will not survive if The Sanatani of India is converted."
