Union Minister Nitin Gadkari
Union minister and senior BJP leader Nitin Gadkari has dismissed his Cabinet colleague Maneka Gandhi's demand for Maharashtra Forest Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar's resignation over the killing of tigress T1 as laughable.
Gadkari told media persons in Nagpur yesterday that the politics over the culling of the 'man-eater' tigress had become dirtier and irresponsible. He said the incident of hunting the tigress was unfortunate but very essential in terms of saving many lives in the future, adding that all possible efforts were made to tranquillise the big cat, and that the forest department had to take a sad decision because many more human lives were in grave danger.
