Bharatiya Janata Party's Bhopal candidate Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur on Thursday said, "Nathuram Godse was a patriot, is a patriot and will remain a patriot." She added, "People calling him (Godse) a terrorist should instead look within, such people will be given a befitting reply in these elections." This comes after Kamal Haasan called Godse 'Independent India's first terrorist'.
