Karnataka Health Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao reminded that V D Savarkar was not against cow slaughter as he himself was non-veg eater, PTI reported on Thursday.
"As a Brahmin he was eating meat, and he was openly propagating eating meat," said the minister at an event in Bengaluru.
Reacting to Gundu Rao's claim, BJP MP Anurag Thakur called Congress a "factory of lies" as he warned that India won't tolerate any disrespect towards Savarkar.
"By disrespecting Veer Savarkar they have shown that they don't respect freedom fighters. During the Congress government, Sardar Bhagat Singh was termed a separatist in textbooks...By making those who want to break the nation join the congress party, Rahul Gandhi is taking forward the ideology of 'tukde tukde' and he is a 'modern Jinnah' who speaks ill of the country abroad...," he said.
Meanwhile, a court in Maharashtra's Nashik district summoned Congress MP Rahul Gandhi earlier this week in a defamation case filed against him for his alleged objectionable remarks against the Hindutva ideologue.
The complainant, who is the director of an NGO, claimed he watched a press conference addressed by Gandhi in Hingoli and also a speech made by the Congress leader in November 2022.
He alleged that Gandhi, on the two occasions, by his words and visual representations knowingly harmed the reputation of Veer Savarkar and also tried to defame the latter's image in the society.
According to the complainant, Gandhi said "Savarkar is BJP and RSS jin" which was defamatory in nature.

Much from the corporate and business atmosphere is accounted by the New
York Stock Exchange and also the Wall Street situated in Lower Manhattan thus implying the presence of a large number
of executives many of whom wish to travel in style.
You can sit around and loose time waiting for your flight, or you can rent an automobile,
or catch a bus and have a good time. Use a limousine service on any special occasions, to make them memorable for
everyone.
