Speech at JNU Campus Troubled Congress Leader — Party Distanced Itself; BJP Criticised Strongly !

The accused of sedition, released on bail, Kanhaiya Kumar, the president of JNU, was compared with martyr Bhagat Singh by the Congress leader Shashi Tharoor who saying so is in trouble. The party leaders are contradicted his statement. Ghulam Nabi Azad the senior leader of congress has said that Bhagat Singh cannot be compared with youth of nowadays.

Ghulam Nabi Azad, distanced from the statement of Tharoor, said that it might be his own opinion. The congress leader Bhim Afzal has also said that this can be own thinking.  That the time of Bhagat Singh was different is not correct so to compare nowadays. As the matter came in light, the political uproar started. Meanwhile Mr Tharoor in his clarification said that having taken the thinking of both, Bhagat Singh and Kanhaiya Kumar, he had stated so.

The BJP dubbed it degrading of martyr Bhagat Singh. Mr Shahnawaz Hussain, the BJP leader, targeted the congress and said, “Mr. Tharoor looked whose glimpse in Sonia-Rahul should also tell now. The BJP leader Anant Kumar said that Mr. Shashi Tharoor only can give such statement."

Shashi tharoor had said addressing the student in JNU on Sunday evening that Kanhaiya Kumar is the Bhagat Singh of nowadays. Bhagat Singh was a young man in his 20s with Marxist beliefs who had great passion for motherland. Kanhaiya has same qualities in common.

Kanhaiya Kumar, targeting the Modi Government in a program organized by a news channel, had said that if the government resorted the path of English rule, he would act like Bhagat Singh.
