Kochi: Vishwa Samvada Kendra organised a discussion on the neglected facts about assassination of Gandhiji on January 30. Delivering the key note address, RSS Akhil Bharatiya Sah Prachar Pramukh Shri J Nandakumar said: ‘Heinous act of a perverted mind. I hang my head with shame’ was the reaction of the then RSS Sarsanghachalak Shri Guruji to the assassination of Gandhiji. Shri Nandakumar explained in detail the unholy nexus between Congress, Communists and Hindu Mahasabha leaders with respect to the murder of Gandhiji. Hindu Mahasabha was not banned when Gandhiji was murdered even though the assassins belonged to that party. Nirmal Chandra Chatterjee, president of the Sabha during the assassination, was made a judge in Calcutta High Court post assassination. Later on he was elected to Lok Sabha as a Hindu Mahasabha candidate. Gradually, he turned a CPM MP. Afterwards his son Somnath Chaterjee became Lok Sabha MP. Somnath was made Lok Sabha Speaker as part of the pact between Congress and the CPM. But the RSS, despite having not an iota of evidence against it, was banned. Shri Nandakumar referred to Justice Kapoor Commission report, which did not establish any RSS link in the murder.
Senior BJP leader, author and veteran lawyer Adv. PS Sreedharan Pillai released the book “Assassination – Mahatma Gandhi — Neglected Chronologies” which is the English
version of Shabu Prasad’s Malayalam book, Gandhivadham — Avaganikkapeta Nallvazhikal. The English translation has been done by senior journalist Shri T Satisan.

Shri Pillai recalled that when Smt Indira Gandhi got power in 1980 she made sure that copies of Shah Commission report and Kapur Commission report do not see light in the country. Senior BMS leader Shri CK
Saji Narayanan demanded earliest incorporation of Gandhiji Assassination and Justice Kapor Commission report in school-college syllabi. Journalist and script writer Shri Rajesh Jayaraman introduced the book.
