Amit Shah insulted the framer of the Constitution by saying that taking Ambedkar's name has become a fashion.
Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar Row
The political uproar after Amit Shah’s comment on Ambedkar is not ending. After the protest on Wednesday, Congress has now planned a nationwide protest on this issue on Thursday. During this protest, Congress workers will demand the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
News agency ANI has reported that Congress has prepared a plan for demonstrations across the country. Under this, all Pradesh Congress Committees (PCC), state and district units have decided to protest outside the district offices. Let us tell you that Amit Shah’s comment on Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar has given rise to a massive political controversy, in which the Congress-led opposition has surrounded the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led central government.
Parliament proceedings also had to be postponed
On this issue, due to the attack by almost all the opposition parties including Congress, TMC, DMK, RJD, Left parties and Shiv Sena-UBT, the proceedings of both the houses of Parliament had to be adjourned on Wednesday. In defense of Amit Shah, PM Narendra Modi had to post on X, while Amit Shah himself had to do a PC.
What did Amit Shah say?
In fact, during the debate on the Constitution in Rajya Sabha on Tuesday, Amit Shah made a comment about Ambedkar. He said, “Now it has become a fashion – Ambedkar. If you take this many names of God, you will get heaven for seven lives.” Amit Shah attacked Congress several times in his speech, but his comment about Bhimrao Ambedkar gave an opportunity to the opposition. Congress is constantly demanding an apology from Amit Shah for this. Apart from this, the party is now also demanding PM Modi to sack Amit Shah.
