Nathuram Godse, an affiliate of BJP’s parent organization, Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh (RSS) has become an indispensable part of the BJP. With recent developments, the ruling party's leaders have made it difficult for BJP to maintain its image as the only and truly nationalist and patriotic party with their embarrassing statements on Godse.

BJP MP from Bhopal Sadhvi Pragya Thakur apologized twice in Lok Sabha on Friday for calling Nathuram Godse a patriot. Opposition parties protested after Pragya's first apology at 12:30 pm in Parliament. After this, Speaker Om Birla called an all party meeting. Pragya then apologized for the second time in Lok Sabha at 2:30 pm. She said, "I did not call Nathuram Godse a patriot in the Parliament on 27 November. I didn't even name him. "
