Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Sunday said that a âreal Hindutvawadi' would have shot Mohammad Ali Jinnah as Pakistan was his demand. He was responding to Rahul Gandhi's tweet where he stated that a âHindutvawadi' shot assassinated Mahatma Gandhi but "Bapu is still alive where the truth prevails today."
"A Hindutvavadi had shot Gandhiji. All Hindutvavadis feel that Gandhiji is no more. Where there is truth, Bapu is still alive today! #GandhiForever," Rahul Gandhi tweeted in Hindi.
Raut added that it would have been an act of patriotism to assassinate Jinnah. He believes that shooting an unarmed Mahatma Gandhi was wrong and the world mourns his loss to date.
