The party has recommended the MP's removal from the consultative committee on defence

The BJP on Thursday condemned the remarks made by its Lok Sabha MP Pragya Thakur in Parliament on Wednesday referring to Nathuram Godse and said it does not supports such statements.

BJP working president JP Nadda also recommended Ms. Thakur’s removal from the consultative committee on defence, to which she was recently appointed.

“We have decided that Thakur will not attend meetings of BJP parliamentary party during the session,” he said.

Thakur had made the remark yesterday in the Lok Sabha after interrupting DMK member A Raja's narration of a statement by Nathuram Godse before a court on why he killed Mahatma Gandhi. In yet another controversial decision, Speaker Om Birla said only Raja’s speech during the discussion on the Special Protection Group (Amendment) Bill will go on record. Later, the Lok Sabha secretariat issued an official communication that Thakur's remarks are "non-recorded".

Raja said that Godse himself admitted that he had nursed a grudge against Gandhi for 32 years before finally deciding to assassinate him. “Godse killed Gandhi because he believed in a particular philosophy,” Raja added. While the opposition members protested the interruption by Thakur, the BJP members persuaded her to sit down. 

This is not the first time Thakur has glorified Godse. During the campaign for 2019 Lok Sabha elections, Thakur had described Godse as a “true patriot”, triggering a huge political storm. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had then said that he would never forgive Thakur. 

With Thakur repeating the statement, the Congress has attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the comments, alleging that the PM's "inaction" against her proves his latent support to "Godse's sinister thought".

Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said the prime minister, who celebrated Mahatma Gandhi's 150th birth anniversary in a grand manner, is requested to say from the heart what his thoughts are about Godse.

Another Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi, referring to Thakur, said "this motormouth" shall ensure the downfall of the BJP. "Whatever the case might be, this is an extremely dangerous sign and has made a complete mockery of the Indian democracy and it's founding fathers," he said in a tweet.

Controversial BJP MP Pragya Thakur has been nixed from a parliamentary consultative committee on defence a day after the Bhopal lawmaker referred to Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse as a ‘patriot’ on the floor of the Lok Sabha. As the opposition mounts a sharp attack on the BJP over the now-expunged remarks, the party has also barred the Malegaon blasts accused from attending its parliamentary meetings during the winter session. 

“Her statement yesterday in Parliament is condemnable. The BJP never supports such statement or ideology,” BJP working president JP Nadda said. Shortly after, sources told News18 that the party is planning further disciplinary action against the motor-mouth MP with suspension from the party not being ruled out.

According to sources, Sadhvi Pragya Thakur's case has been forwarded to the BJP disciplinary committee and her suspension from the party is likely. The BJP MP  again referred to Mahatma Gandhi's assassin Nathuram Godse as a "deshbhakt" (patriot), this time during a debate in the Lok Sabha yesterday, triggering a protest by opposition members.
