Mumbai, Jun 01 (ANI): Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Jitendra Awhad on Saturday demanded “immediate suspension” of IAS officer Nidhi Choudhari who in a May 17 tweet had ‘thanked’ Nathram Godse, for the assassin of Mahatma Gandhi. “We demand immediate suspension of IAS officer Nidhi Choudhari for her derogatory tweet against Mahatma Gandhi. She glorified Nathuram Godse, this should not be tolerated,” Awhad told ANI. Choudhari has since deleted her tweet and in a fresh tweet said that her earlier tweet was ‘misunderstood’.
