In this regard, he said two journalists have been included in the list of statehood activists in the past also.Union Minister of state for parliamentary affairs Harish Rawat had yesterday criticised Nishank for including his name in the list of statehood activists and asked him to apologise to the people stating that he not only hurt their sentiments but also violated the propriety of the office he holds.He had said only those people should find place in the list of statehood activists, who participated in the movement selflessly and without any political motive.
