New Delhi: Former BJP parliamentarian Tarun Vijay apologised after his remarks about South Indians became controversial.
Mr.Vijay was taking part in news channel Al Jazeera’s The Stream program about the recent attack on African nationals in India when he made the following remarks: “If we were racist, why would we have all the entire south…Tamil, Kerala, Karnataka and Andhra…why do we live with them? We have black people around us.”
He later wrote on Twitter, “I feel the entire statement as this- we have fought racism and we have people with different colour and culture still never had any racism. My words perhaps were not enough to convey this. Feel bad,really feel sorry, my apologies to those who feel i said different than what I meant”
