BJP MP Pragya Thakur on Friday tendered an apology in the Lok Sabha on her remarks on Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse, saying she “regrets and apologises” if her statement had hurt anybody and clarified that her remarks were “wrongly interpreted and twisted”.
The Bhopal MP, who faces charges in the Malegaon blasts case, later said she respects the service of Mahatma Gandhi for the country and condemned the way her statement was interpreted.
“In the backdrop of the past sequence of events, I express regret and apologies if any statement made by me in the House has hurt anybody in any way. But, I also want to say that my statement made in Parliament was wrongly interpreted and twisted,” Thakur said.
