New Delhi, Dec 14 (IANS): Union Minister Giriraj Singh took to Twitter to attack Rahul Gandhi on Saturday for the statement he made during Bharat Bachao rally in the capital.

Singh said: "Vir Savarkar was a real patriot. No one becomes Gandhi and a patriot by merely adopting a surname. One needs Indian blood to become a real patriot. Many people have looted the country in disguise. It is unacceptable."

The Minister tagged a picture of Rahul, Sonia and Priyanka. "Who are these three? Are they common people of India?"

Rahul Gandhi on Saturday launched a scathing attack on the BJP while addressing 'Bharat Bachao rally' in the capital. He said he would not apologise for speaking the truth. "My name is not Rahul Savarkar, but Rahul Gandhi. I will not apologise for speaking the truth".

Rahul courted controversy over his "rape in India" remark at an election rally in Godda, Jharkhand, which led to ruckus in Parliament. The BJP had sought apology from Rahul for making that statement.

    The shouting brigade of the BJP. Just noise makers. Except for a few in the BJP, hardly anyone in the country knows Sarvarkar. At best the BJP and the RSS can build up his image within the country as No one in the outside world knows him.

    Just imagine the Goodwill around the world have for people like Mahatma Gandhi, Ambedkar, Jawahar Lal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shashtri and other leaders.

    As a response to the Muslim League, Savarkar joined the Hindu Mahasabha and popularized the term Hindutva (Hinduness), previously coined by Chandranath Basu,[6] to create a collective "Hindu" identity as an essence of Bharat (India). Direct from Wikipedia.
