Congress Puts Mahatma Gandhi Image On Twitter Profile

A day after BJP’s Lok Sabha candidate from Bhopal Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur kicked up a major row by describing Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse as a “deshbhakt” (patriot), the Congress on Friday changed its Twitter handle profile picture with an image of Mahatma Gandhi.

The party’s official twitter handle earlier carried its poll symbol ‘hand’ as the profile picture. The move came a day after Thakur described Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse as a “deshbhakt” (patriot).
