“Rather it is Godse who is Mahatma to me and I bow before him,” he said.
Reacting sharply, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel said, “If Kalicharan was courageous enough and has no remorse, he should surrender before the police. Otherwise police teams are being sent to different states and he is arrested. will be done.
The Chhattisgarh Police had registered a case against Kalicharan for his controversial and derogatory remarks on Mahatma Gandhi and the minority community during a ‘Dharma Sansad’ held in Raipur on Saturday and Sunday.

Controversy escalated from Haridwar ‘Dharma Sansad’, FIR on ‘hate speech’
What Gandhi has done for Hindus, he has betrayed the country. They have planted the seeds of dynasty politics in the country and have destroyed others. I do not call him the father of the nation. If there was no Gandhi-Nehru dynasty, India would have become a bigger superpower than America.
Have not the freedom fighters Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Rajguru, Chandrashekhar Azad, Subhash Chandra Bose and others made sacrifices for freedom? Kalicharan said that Gandhi could have prevented the hanging.
Gandhi only used ‘fasting’ against the peace of the nation. Lakhs of people were killed during the India-Pakistan partition,” he said.
He challenged that he would accept death and would never regret speaking the “truth” despite hating Gandhi and the cases registered against him.
Meanwhile, Chhattisgarh Janata Congress (J) president Amit Jogi said that instead of focusing on Gandhi and Godse, who are no more, the government should focus on the issues of the state which attract attention.
“Programs like Dharma Sansad are done to distract people from the real issues. There are issues like unemployment, farmers and others which no one talks about. The need of the hour is to focus on the development of the state, although it is objectionable to speak ill of the Father of the Nation.
