RAJKOT: Lashing out at Bollywood actor Amir Khan for his remarks on ‘ intolerance in the country’, senior BJP leader Subramanian Swamy said that if Amir Khan feels that he is unsafe in the country, then he should go to Pakistan and government should arrange free air ticket to him for his travel to that country.’’

Subramanian Swamy said while interacting with media persons in coastal town of Somnath in Gir-Somnath district on Tuesday afternoon.

Earlier on Monday, Aamir had said that he felt "alarmed" by recent happenings in the country at a function in New Delhi where he said that his wife Kiran Rao had suggested that they should move out of the country in wake of recent happenings seen by many as incidents of intolerance.

“When I chat with Kiran at home, she says, 'Should we move out of India?' That's a disastrous and big statement for Kiran to make. She fears for her child. She fears what the atmosphere around us will be. She feels scared to open the newspapers every day. That does indicate that there is this sense of growing disquiet, there is growing despondency apart from alarm,’’ Amir Khan said.

However, Amir Khan’s remark triggered a massive war of words between the ruling BJP and opposition parties, especially Congress.

While referring Amir Khan as ‘Namak Haram’, Swamy further said that Amir Khan made his fame and fortune in this country and now talks about ‘intolerance’ “We went to theatre to watch his films and did not think that he was Muslims but now he feels unsafe he should left the country’’ Swamy added.
