AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Tuesday slammed RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat over telling lies about Savarkar. Owaisi said BJP will soon declare Vinayak Damodar Savarkar as ‘father of the nation’. "They (BJP) are presenting distorted history. If this continues, they will remove Mahatma Gandhi and make Savarkar, who was accused of the murder of Mahatma Gandhi and was pronounced complicit in the inquiry of Justice Jeevan Lal Kapur, as the father of the nation." Earlier on Tuesday, the Defence Minister has stated that it was on Mahatma Gandhi's request that Savarkar wrote mercy petitions to the British. Watch the full video for more details.
