Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur lauded Mahatma Gandhi's assassin Nathuram Godse as a "patriot", sparking an outrage from the Opposition with the Congress alleging that "insulting martyrs is in the DNA" of BJP, which also condemned her remarks.
She was replying to a question over actor-politician Kamal Haasan's remark that independent India's first "extremist was a Hindu", a reference to Godse. The BJP immediately got into damage control and distanced itself from Thakur's statement and asked her to tender a public apology, which she did.
