Sambhaji Bhide for his alleged objectionable remarks against Gandhiji, said Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday, and asserted that the insult of Gandhi will not be tolerated.Bhide was booked by Rajapeth police in Amravati a day earlier for allegedly commenting on the lineage of Gandhiji while addressing an event there on Thursday. «I fully condemn the statement of Sambhaji Bhide. Mahatma Gandhi is the Father of the Nation and a 'mahanayak' of the freedom struggle. Making such a statement against a mahanayak is totally unacceptable,» Fadnavis told reporters in Nagpur. «I am making it clear that Sambhaji Bhide or anyone else cannot make such statements as it creates anger among people, who will never tolerate such an insult of Gandhiji. Police will take appropriate action in the case,» the senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader said. Fadnavis also said Bhide runs an independent organisation (Shri Shiv Pratishthan Hindustan) and has no link to BJP, adding that opposition parties must not give the issue a political colour.
