Condemning the blackening and glarlanding shoes to Veer Savarkar’s bust, installed at the Delhi University’s north campus, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Friday said that the miscreants behind the incident would be prosecuted.
Talking to media persons at Dhule in north Maharashtra during the course of his Mahajansandesh Yatra, Fadnavis said: “Swatantryaveer Savarkar was the Guru and inspiration of many revolutionaries. The sacrifices made by the Savarkar family for the independence of the country are unparalleled. They should be respected”.
“Those involved in the incident at Delhi University’s north campus should certainly be prosecuted. No one should try to create the issue of law and order in this case and disturb the social harmony,” the chief minister said.
It may be recalled that a pillar with busts of V D Savarkar, Bhagat Singh and Subhas Chandra Bose atop were installed by the ABVP-led Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) at the University’s north campus on Tuesday.
