The BJP on Monday served a show-cause notice to its MP Anantkumar Hegde for his critical remarks against Mahatma Gandhi and the freedom movement. Hegde, a former Union minister, reportedly claimed at an event in Bengaluru that the entire freedom movement was staged with the consent and support of the British, and the independence movement led by Gandhi was a "drama".
