New Delhi: Disappointed and "hurt" for his sarcastic tweet on Jain monk Tarun Sagar's address to the Haryana Assembly, music composer Vishal Dadlani, has again tendered an apology for hurting sentiments of the Jains and has asked for forgiveness.
Vishal Dadlani, who quit the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) after his tweet that was strongly disapproved by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, said he will only work for social causes for the upliftment and betterment of the poor and underprivileged.
"As a concerned Indian, I should have been especially careful to be sensitive to the sentiments of followers of Muni Tarun Sagar ji. Especially after receiving his forgiveness, I realise what a magnanimous and generous heart he has, and what strength lies within the gentleness of the Jain people," Mr Dadlani said in an open letter to Tarun Sagar and Jains.
"I have always stood up for the rights of every Indian, and I feel like I have failed my love for my country this time.
"It is that same ego that I hope to defeat, with your help. I apologise again, from the depths of my heart, and ask that Muni-ji and all my Jain brothers and sisters, forgive me," Mr Dadlani said.
