Singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya has been surrounded with controveries and has yet again sparked outrage with his recent comment. In an interview, the singer discussed Mahatma Gandhi and called him the 'Father of Pakistan'. He also claimed that Gandhi was 'mistakenly' called the 'Father of India' and he even tried to justify his comment by adding that he was responsible for Pakistan's existence.
In an interview with Free Press Journal, the singer said, 'Music composer RD Burman was bigger than Mahatma Gandhi. Like Mahatma Gandhi was the father of the nation, RD Burman was the father of the nation in the world of music'. He also added saying, 'Mahatma Gandhi was the father of the nation for Pakistan and not India. India already existed, Pakistan was carved out of India later. Gandhi has been mistakenly called the father of the nation for India. He was the one responsible for the existence of Pakistan'. (Agencies)
