RSS leader Manmohan Vaidya today asked Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi to come up with evidence to back his claim that his organisation was responsible for Mahatma Gandhi's assassination.
"It's court which will decide the matter, not Rahul Gandhi. When an RSS volunteer has challenged him in the court, he is running away. If he has any evidence in support of his claims, he should present them before Judiciary," Vaidya, who was in the city for a two-day meeting of RSS volunteers, told reporters.
"RSS had no connection with Mahatma Gandhi's assassination. There is no mention of Sangh in the charge sheet and the accused did not even mention the name of RSS," he said.
Without naming Mahatma Gandhi, Vaidya said RSS had observed 13-day mourning after his death.
"Whatever Rahul Gandi has said is lie. He extends support to those who were held terrorists by court. Does he has faith in judiciary of the country or not?" he questioned.
