Kerala CM not sorry for insulting slain NSG major

New Delhi: A day after Kerala Chief Minister VS Achuthanandan insulted the family of martyred NSG Commando Sandeep Unnikrishnan, he refused to apologise for the denigrating remark.

“No, no,” is all he said when journalists confronted him with the question.

Achuthanandan on Monday heaped scorn on the family of NSG Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan – slain in the Mumbai terror attack during commando operations - after smarting under the snub from the father of the angry officer.

"If it had not been (Major) Sandeep's house, not even a dog would have glanced that way,” he said when turned away at the door by Unnikrishnan’s father.

The octogenarian CPI-M leader was turned away from the Bangalore home of Sandeep, a Keralite, on Sunday for what K Unnikrishnan perceived as Kerala government ignoring his son's supreme sacrifice.
