New Delhi, Aug 15 (TIWN) Amid the BJP blaming first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru for the partition, the Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi has said that the party will oppose distorting of historical facts for political gains.
In a statement on Monday she said, "Congress will oppose the wrong statements for political benefits and any attempt to question great national leaders like Gandhi-Nehru-Patel-Azad on the basis of incorrect facts."
She said that historical facts are being distorted and India has achieved a lot in the last 75 years and democracy has been strengthened. She blamed that the present self-centred government is adamant about proving insignificant the great sacrifices of freedom fighters and glorious achievements of the country and this could not be accepted.
