The storm over the cancellation of stampheads of former Prime Ministers Indira and Rajiv Gandhi continues with the Union Minister of State Pon Radhakrishnan condemning the Congress for playing politics in issuing stamps.

Accusing the Congress of seeking political mileage even in issuing stamps with portraits of former PMs, he termed the protests on the withdrawal of stamps as politically motivated.

Meanwhile, EVKS Elangovan, while addressing the Congress party workers, said that the Government “will remove the portrait of Gandhiji from the currency notes and instead put Godse’s photographs,” since a section wanted to put up his statues.
