Sadhvi Pragya Thakur Declares "Bhagwa Has Won"
Following her acquittal in the 2008 Malegaon blast case, Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur stated on Thursday that there had been a conspiracy to malign the saffron identity, declaring, “Bhagwa has won today.” The former BJP MP claimed that her life was upended by the case and that she was falsely implicated in a deliberate attempt to defame the saffron ideology.
“I have always maintained that investigations must have a valid basis. I was summoned, arrested, and subjected to torture — it destroyed my life,” she said.
On Thursday, a special NIA court in Mumbai acquitted all seven individuals charged in the Malegaon blast case, ruling that the prosecution had failed to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt.
Reflecting on her ordeal, Sadhvi Pragya said, “I was living the life of a saint, and yet I was framed. No one stood by us. I survived only because of my spiritual strength. They conspired to defame ‘Bhagwa’, but justice has prevailed today. Bhagwa and Hindutva have triumphed. Those responsible will face divine justice. While the court hasn’t proven them guilty, they cannot be declared innocent in the eyes of Dharma.”
The seven acquitted included former MP Sadhvi Pragya, retired Major Ramesh Upadhyay, Sudhakar Chaturvedi, Ajay Rahirkar, Sudhankar Dhar Dwivedi (also known as Shankaracharya), and Sameer Kulkarni.
The 2008 Malegaon blasts resulted in several deaths and injuries, drawing national attention. The case was seen as politically and communally sensitive, and Thursday’s verdict marks the end of a long legal battle. The court’s ruling, citing lack of evidence, has reignited public debate over the investigation, legal process, and the larger ideological implications tied to the case.
