After a jury headed by PM Narendra Modi unanimously selected Gita Press, Gorakhpur, for the Gandhi Peace Prize, it triggered a fresh political controversy in the country, with senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh publicly slamming the decision. Labeling the move a "travesty," Ramesh stated that giving this award to Gita Press would be like awarding it to Nathuram Godse and Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.
