Chennai: President of Tamil Nadu Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) unit Tamilisai Soundararajan on Monday slammed actor-politician Kamal Haasan for saying that the first terrorist of independent India was a Hindu. Reacting to this, the BJP leader in a tweet said recalling Gandhi’s assassination now and calling it Hindu terrorism was condemnable.
“Standing amidst minorities in TN by-election campaign, he is lighting a dangerous fire to gain votes by minority appeasement. Kamal didn’t opine on recent Sri Lanka bomb blast, why?” he tweeted.
“He threatened to leave India when his film (Vishwaroopam) screening was prevented by religious groups! True political acting started now having lost the chances in screenplay,” he said. (IANS)
