He said the RSS has never discussed such matters (contents of Sudarshan’s remarks) at any time or at any level, nor does it possess any such information.

The BJP too distanced itself from Sudarshan’s statement, saying Gandhi was an elected representative and should be treated with respect.

“As a democratically elected leader she (Gandhi) should be respected,” BJP spokesperson Tarun Vijay said.
