	Hindu Nationalist Still Proud of Role in Killing Father of India
		Nathuram Godse was sentenced to death for the killing and hanged on Nov. 15, 1949.
		Godse, the last surviving member of the group that plotted the Gandhi killing, described the ascent of the Hindu party as a critical step toward achievement of the "Hindu Rashtra," or Hindu nation -- a nationalist concept that hearkens back to ancient Hindu kingdoms that ruled before the first Muslim invaders arrived.
		Godse said he fled the scene and returned by train to Pune, meeting up again in Bombay a few days later with his brother, who told him that he was returning to New Delhi to carry out the assassination alone.

	Nathuram Godse
		Nathuram Vinayak Godse (May 19, 1910 - November 15, 1949) was the assassin of Mohandas Gandhi, one of the principal figures in the movement for India's independence from Britain.
		Godse was a right-wing Hindu Brahmin who blamed Gandhi for his role in supporting the Partition of the subcontinent into India and Pakistan.
		Godse's primary motivation for the assassination is usually ascribed to Gandhi's January 13, 1948 decision to fast to the death unless the Indian central government reversed a decision to withhold the transfer of 55 crore (550 million) rupees (which was to be paid in accordance with the partition agreements) to the government of Pakistan.

	Manas: History and Politics, Indus Valley
		Godse was certainly a frequent visitor to Savarkar’s residence, and he did not, in the time that intervened between his arrest on January 30 and his execution upon conviction of the charge of murder nearly two years later, ever disown his association with the Mahasabha.
		The general consensus appears to be that Nathuram, who saw himself as a passionate and ardent defender of the Hindu motherland against the depredations of Muslims, was at one point active in the RSS but resigned his membership in the early 1930s.
		Whether Godse formally remained a member of the RSS is much less important than the fact that though the Hindu Mahasabha and the RSS had some ideological differences, both organizations were united in their extreme hostility to Gandhi as well as to Muslims.

	The Assasination of Gandhi
		The staging of the play entitled, "Mee Nathuram Godse Boltoy" is a clear proof of the fact that the mindset that led to Gandhiji's assassination has not disappeared from our national life.
		The frank and bold statement of Tilak defending the Pact is an eloquent refutation of the charge that Gandhiji began the policy of appeasement of Muslims.
		It is revolting to find that the heinous murder of one who was a living embodiment of nonviolence, peace and love and who was as defenseless as a naked new born child should be made a scaffolding for a neo-fascist doctrine.

		Likewise, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar distanced himself from Nathuram by telling the Court on November 20, 1948 that he was introduced to Godse and Apte, co-conspirator in the Gandhi assassination, as Hindu Sabha workers.
		Godse also mentions the hostility of some Hindu Mahasabha leaders who, he claims, are working for the demise of the paper.

		In fact, Nathuram wrote in a letter that “Gandhiji is immortal, but Gandhism is on its deathbed.” From this, it is evident that Godse not only felt that he had killed Gandhi, the man, but also believed, even as he was about to be hanged,that Gandhism was on its deathbed and would die soon.

	The Hindu : National : "Only Dr. Hedgewar is your equal"
		As early as February 1938, Godse pleads with Savarkar to assume the leadership of the Hindus by aligning with the RSS and drawing on its strengths.
		In dramatic fashion, Godse tells Savarkar: "There is only one leader who is your equal and peer, and that is Dr. Hedgewar." He suggests that if only Savarkar can speak to Dr. Keshavram Baliram Hedgewar, the RSS founder, a lot can be achieved in realising the goal of Hindu unity.
		In a daring gesture — hardly the act of an ordinary worker with a nodding acquaintance with Savarkar, as is suggested by Nathuram in his testimony — Godse goes on to suggest names for a revamp of the Hindu Mahasabha leadership.
