Samajwadi Party demonstrates against Ambedkar at Parliament premises
The controversy over Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s remarks against framer Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar during a discussion on the Constitution does not seem to be stopping. Both the adjudicator and the opposition staged protests against Ambedkar ahead of the start of parliamentary proceedings on Wednesday. Inside the Assembly House, Congress leaders wore blue while Samajwadi Party leaders protested in red hats.
Film actress and SP Rajya Sabha MP Jaya Bachchan also participated in today’s protest. He also wore the party’s red hat during the demonstration. Jaya Bachchan said: “India will not tolerate the insult of Baba Saheb. The leader of our country who gave us independence and constitution has been deferred. The plaque of his name (Bhim Rao Ambedkar) has been described as backward The protector of the class. He is the protector of the whole country and of the Constitution.”

SP’s young MP Iqra Hasan said during the protest, “There is a big difference between what the PPP says and what it does. This demonstration is to protest against Amit Shah’s remarks. Baba Saheb not only talked about backward classes and Dalit rights, it also talks about the rights of everyone in the constitution.”
Congress wears blue to demonstrate
Samajwadi Party MP Ram Gopal Yadav, wearing the party’s red cap, also said, “Baba Saheb Ambedkar is respected and remembered by all people of this country, but Home Minister Amit Shah’s remarks in the House were absolutely disgusting. “It is true and people are protesting. “
Like the Samajwadi Party, the Congress also operates in its own style. While Congress leader Rahul Gandhi came to Parliament wearing a blue T-shirt, Priyanka Gandhi wore a blue sari. Congress held a demonstration on the parliament grounds before the start of parliamentary proceedings. Later, even after the recess, MPs staged demonstrations.
