October 20, 2016
The district unit of the BJP today sought action against former IAS officer, Christudas Gandhi, for hurting sentiments of Hindus, for his reported remarks against Lord Rama while participating in a discussion on a private channel.
In a petition to the City Police Commissioner, A. Amalraj, the party president, C.R. Nandakumar claimed that Gandhi, during the discussion, has asked what was wrong if Lord Ram was beaten with a chappal.
