The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has decided not to field Anantkumar Hegde, a six-time Member of Parliament known for his controversial remarks, in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. This decision comes in the wake of his comments about changing the Constitution, which sparked significant backlash. Additionally, a retired High Court Judge and BJP member made a contentious statement about Nathuram Godse, leading to criticism from political figures including SaugataRoyMP, who stated, 'His remark has shown that he was neither fit to be a judge nor a politician'. These incidents have highlighted the party's stance against hate speech and controversial remarks by its members.
