No one has the right to play with country's unity: Anupam Kher

February 14, 2016 17:27

Amid raging row over an event in JNU where anti-India slogans were alleged to have been raised, noted actor Anupam Kher said freedom of speech does not mean people have the right to create disunity in the country.

"How can people raise slogans to decimate India in a big university JNU in the nation's capital? What kind of freedom of speech is this, which poses threat to the nation's unity?" Kher, who arrived here to take part in a drama, told reporters last night.

"You can raise slogans against anyone if you are angry with any government. But you don't have the right to play with the unity of the country. No question arises of pardoning them," the 60-year-old actor said.

He also expressed annoyance over politics being played on the JNU issue.
