Shankarsinh Vaghela's Controversial Godhra Massacre Claims

Shankarsinh Vaghela's Controversial Godhra Massacre Claims

Shankarsinh Vaghela, a former Chief Minister of Gujarat, has made controversial statements about the Godhra Massacre, which happened in 2002.

He claimed that the train coach was set on fire from the inside by the Hindu Karsevaks, not from the outside by local Muslims.

This is contrary to the court's findings, which proved that Muslims had planned and executed the attack.

Vaghela's statements have been widely criticized as they insult the victims and their families.

The video of his interview has gained over 1 million views, and many people are taking his words as truth.

It is important to note that the court has already punished the criminals involved in the massacre, and Vaghela's claims are factually incorrect and disrespectful.
