Ujjwal Nikam, a BJP candidate and former prosecutor in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack, has questioned Congress politician Vijay Wadettiwar`s recent comments about the incident. Wadettiwar, the Maharashtra Assembly`s Leader of Opposition, stated that former Mumbai ATS chief Hemant Karkare was slain by a police official affiliated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).

Nikam criticised Wadettiwar`s allegations as "baseless" and compared them to "Goebbels` propaganda," alluding to Hitler`s senior propagandist. He was outraged by Wadettiwar`s charges, accusing him of demeaning Hemant Karkare`s memory and casting doubt on the case`s legal conclusions, reported ANI.
