Congress vs Amit Shah on BR Ambedkar: All is Fair in War and Politics?

The Quint  

In his recent speech at the Rajya Sabha during the Constitution debate, Home Minister Amit Shah made several noteworthy statements that warrant serious discussion. Shah also accused the Congress of opposing welfare measures for Other Backward Classes while pushing for reservations for Muslims by exceeding the 50% limit set by the Constitution. Shah stated, “I want to tell the people of the country that reservation on the basis of religion exists in two states of the country. But today I once again say with responsibility in this House that as long as there is even a single BJP MP, we will not allow reservation on the basis of religion.”
