Talking to reporters after BJP called for action against him for his remarks against Pragya Thakur, Rahul said,’’I stand by my statement. What I have written on twitter, I stand by it.’’

On the BJP calling for action against him for his remarks, Rahul said,’’that’s ok. There is no problem,. Whatever they want to do. I will welcome.’’

On Pragya Thakur’s remarks on Godse, Rahul said,’’Pragya Thakur says what she believed in. I do not agree with her but she believes in it.’’

‘’Godse also used violence . She also believes in violence,’’Rahul said.

Rahul’s remarks came after Pragya Thakur tendered an apology for her remarks in the Lok Sabha . She, however, said that her remarks have been twisted.
