NDA leaders react to Amit Shah’s statement.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah participated in the discussion on the Constitution in the Union House on Tuesday. He cornered Congress on various issues. While mentioning the founder of the constitution, Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar, he also attacked the Congress party. Sharing a clip of his speech, Congress accused Amit Shah of insulting Ambedkar. The opposition also demanded an apology. Before knowing what Amit Shah said in the House, let us first know what NDA allies Ramdas Atharwal and Chirag Paswan had to say about his statement.
Union Minister Ramdas Attawal said Amit Shah meant that the Congress defeated Baba Saheb Ambedkar twice. It was because of Congress that he had to resign from the cabinet. Congress is a party that insults Baba Saheb. These people still keep saying Ambedkar-Ambedkar. Amit Shah had great respect for Baba Saheb. He has completed his reply to the Congress for insulting Baba Saheb.
What did Union Minister Chirag Paswan say?
Union Minister Chirag Paswan said the Congress today expressed concerns over the honor of Baba Saheb. This Congress did not feel the need to pay tribute to Baba Saheb Ambedkar when he was present. For decades, Congress saw no need to place a single picture of him in the Indian Parliament. They saw no need to confer Bharat Ratna in his memory.
Chirag said there is only one contest in Congress today, why? Because today, Prime Minister Modi and the NDA government at the Center are committed to developing and commemorating important moments related to the life of Bhimrao Ambedkar. As long as the Congress was in power, they tried to forget Baba Saheb’s name, let alone adopt his name. Is the same Congress party today worried about Babasaheb’s respect? Congress is just pretending.
MP Shambhavi Chaudhary’s attack on Congress
LGP(R) MP Shambhavi Chaudhary said the opposition had no issue of national interest. It has become his habit to delay House proceedings by any means necessary. It has become his habit to present any line in a twisted way. In the case of Baba Saheb Ambedkar, Congress members made him a political issue many times but the Congress never gave him respect.
What did Home Minister Amit Shah say?
It has become a fashion now to say Ambedkar…Ambedkar…Ambedkar…Ambedkar, if you take so many names of God, you will go to heaven for seven lifetimes. The Congress released excerpts of Amit Shah’s speech on social media platforms. The BJP has since released the video. Amit Shah is saying here, let me tell you how you feel about Ambedkar Ji. Why did Ambedkar Ji have to resign from the country’s first cabinet post? He has repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the treatment meted out to Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. I don’t agree with the government’s foreign policy and Article 370. That’s why he wanted to leave.
Amit Shah further said that he (Ambedkar) was given assurances but they were not fulfilled. In response, he resigned due to negligence. BC Roy wrote a letter asking what would happen if two great men like Ambedkar and Rajaji left the cabinet. To this, Nehruji replied that Rajaji’s departure would cause some losses, but Ambedkar’s departure would not cause any loss.
Thereafter, Amit Shah, while advising the Congress president, said what was the objection mentioned by Haqq ji, is it appropriate to note down the name of the person against whom you voted. Because there are enough people who believe in Ambedkar ji, that’s why you do Ambedkar…Ambedkar.
