Rahul takes U-turn

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi took a sharp U-turn on Wednesday as he told the Supreme Court that he did not ever blame the RSS for the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi but had only said that a "few individuals in the organisation" were responsible for it.

His lawyer Kapil Sibal said on Wednesday, "Rahul Gandhi never accused RSS as an institution for the crime. He had only blamed certain individuals of that organisation for it. There is no collective denunciation of the RSS."
