Mahua Moitra lauds Kunal Kamra for ‘dare letter’, says ‘let’s hope some VHP workers can read”

Mahua Moitra, Trinamool Congress leader, hailed standup comedian Kunal Kamra for his incisive response to the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), the organisation that forced organisers to cancel the stand-up comic's show in Gurugram.

In an open letter to the VHP, the standup comedian challenged the right-wing organisation to provide any video of him insulting ‘Hindu gods and Hindu culture'. Kamra further clarified in the letter that he only takes a dig at the government.

“If you are a government pet then you may feel bad," Where did the Hindu thing come from in this?” he wrote.

Kunal Kamra also removed the word Vishva (world) from Vishva Hindu Parishad’s name because he disagrees with the notion that “Hindus of this world have given you the contract of their religion.”

Continuing his attack on the VHP, the standup comedian challenged the outfit to condemn the father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi's assassin Nathuram Godse, by sending him in writing that “Godse Murdabad”. Kamra further proclaimed himself as 'a bigger Hindu' than the VHP as he doesn't earn his living by threatening people.
