NDA, INDIA bloc MPs spar over Ambedkar issue in Parliament complex

Hindustan Times  

MPs from both the Opposition as well as the government demonstrated in the Parliament premises on Thursday over the controversy surrounding Union home minister Amit Shah’s recent statements on BR Ambedkar. Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, marched from the Ambedkar statue in the Parliament complex to the Parliament House while raising slogans of ‘Jai Bhim’. In response, Bharatiya Janata Party MPs too staged protests in the Parliament complex, with Union minister Giriraj Singh targeting the Gandhi family saying that they have all received Bharat Ratna, but didn’t give it to Dr Ambedkar. “Babasaheb Ambedkar ji ka apmaan nahi chalega,” BJP MPs said in the Parliament premises while holding banners that read ‘Ambedkar showed us the path, Congress misled’.
