In a statement here, opposition leader in the state assembly Ramesh Chennithala said Shah had committed an "unpardonable mistake".
"By insulting the Father of the Nation, the BJP leader has insulted the country, and it was a reflection of the darkness in him which came out through his words. Shah's words will be rejected by Indians and his place in India's history will be in the dustbin," Chennithala said.
Sudheeran also wanted prosecution proceedings to be launched against Shah for making the alleged statements insulting the Father of Nation and freedom struggle, which amounted to sedition, a punishable offence.
