Salman Khan had said that Modi need not apologize for the Gujarat riots 2002. He said that the BJP leader should not apologize for the communal violence since the judiciary has already cleared him.
As per sources, on Monday Nitish Kumar said that, “2002 riots in Gujarat Can neither be Forgiven nor Forgotten.” The Bihar Chief Minister alleges that the BJP leader should be held accountable for the communal violence that lacerated Gujarat during his first term as its Chief Minister.
