Will not let ‘Godse temple’ come up: UPNS

Uttar Pradesh Nav Nirman Sena (UPNS) on Sunday said that they will not let a temple dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi’s assassin Nathuram Godse be constructed in the district.

“How can a person who shot an unarmed saint be messiah of Hindus? If any such temple is constructed we will vandalise it,” UPNS Chief Amit Jani said at a party meeting here.

Activists of Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha had allegedly performed a ceremony here last week for construction of a “temple” dedicated to Godse, following which the administration ordered a probe into the matter.
