Naseeruddin Shah's statement on Anupam Kher, Kashmiri Pandits triggers fierce reactions on Twitter

Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah's remark on Anupam Kher fighting for Kashmiri Pandits has triggered fierce reactions on the micro-blogging site Twitter. 

Though actor Anupam Kher has not taken to his official twitter account to comment on anything, he did re-tweeted some tweets of his fans in support of him.

Kher started off by writing-

Shah Saab ki Jai Ho. By that logic NRI's should not think about India at all.:) Naseeruddin Shah on Anupam Kher https://t.co/UtQrtZ66we

And then went on to re-tweet the following-

@abpnewshindi @AnupamPkher सर कश्मीर की लड़ाई सिर्फ उनकी नही जो वह रहे या नही रहे कश्मीर भारत का अभिन्न अंग है और हम सभी इस लड़ाई में है।

मै कभी कारगिल नहीं गया तो क्या मै कारगिल युद्ध पर अपने विचार नहीं रख सकता ? @AnupamPkher

Anupam Kher shouldn't fight for KP rights as he never lived there, OTOH Nasiruddin Shah signed Yakub's mercy petition as he was his relative

You don't have to be Kashmiri to fight for #KashmiriPandits plight.Every Indian should condemn the brutality and support their resettlement.

Shah, who was in Delhi earlier for the promotions of his latest venture Waiting, also came out in support of the government saying that it is too soon to judge the government and we should give more time to it.
He also mentioned that changes made in the textbooks bother him.
