Union Minister Kiren Rijiju criticized the Congress party for interrupting a parliamentary meeting about Home Minister Amit Shah’s comments on B.R. Ambedkar. Congress members held up posters of Ambedkar and chanted for Shah to apologize in the Lok Sabha. Rijiju explained that a short clip of Shah’s speech was causing confusion and that it was misleading. According to Rijiju, Shah pointed out that Congress disrespected Ambedkar while he was alive, and now they are using his name for their own political gain.
Rijiju emphasized that the current Modi government has worked hard to honor Ambedkar. He asserted that Congress cannot hide its past mistakes by twisting the facts. Rijiju asked Congress to explain why Ambedkar had to leave Nehru’s cabinet, insisting that Nehru insulted him, leading to his resignation and causing him to lose elections in Lok Sabha.
