Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday responded to the Opposition's protest over Union home minister Amit Shah's remarks on BR Ambedkar in Rajya Sabha. In a post on X, Modi said that Amit Shah exposed Congress' dark history of insulting Ambedkar in the Rajya Sabha. “If the Congress and its rotten ecosystem think their malicious lies can hide their misdeeds of several years, especially their insult towards Dr.
Ambedkar, they are gravely mistaken!” he wrote on X. “The people of India have seen time and again how one Party, led by one dynasty, has indulged in every possible dirty trick to obliterate the legacy of Dr. Ambedkar and humiliate the SC/ST communities.
” The prime minister accused the Congress of denying Bharat Ratna to Ambedkar and also denying space to his portrait in Parliament’s Central Hall. “The list of the Congress' sins towards Dr. Ambedkar includes: Getting him defeated in elections not once but twice, Pandit Nehru campaigning against him and making his loss a prestige issue, denying him a Bharat Ratna, denying his portrait a place of pride in Parliament’s Central Hall,” Modi said.
The prime minister further added: “Congress can try as they want but they can’t deny that the worst massacres against SC/ST Communities have happened under their regimes. For years, they sat in power but did nothing substantive to empower the SC and ST communities.” What Amit Shah said? The Congress party has accused Union home minister Amit Shah of insultin.
