Good Indians desire equality: Kamal Haasan

Author: News Desk

Makkal Needhi Maiyam Founder Kamal Haasan said that free India’s first terrorist was a Hindu and he was Nathuram Godse who killed activist Mahatma Gandhi in 1948.

Addressing an election campaign in Tamil Nadu, the actor-politician said, “I was one of those proud Indians who desired an India with equality and where the three colours in the Tricolour, an obvious reference to different faiths remained intact.”

He said, “I am not saying this because this is a Muslim-dominated area, but I’m saying this before a statue of Mahatma Gandhi. Free India’s first terrorist was a Hindu and his name is Nathuram Godse. There it (terrorism, apparently) starts.”

He added, “Good Indians desire for equality and want the three colours in the Tricolour to remain intact. I’m a good Indian and will proudly proclaim that.”
