Amit Shah has gone mad, should give up politics: Lalu Yadav on Ambedkar row

India Today  

Amid a row over Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks on Dr BR Ambedkar, Rashtriya Janta Dal Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav on Thursday said that Amit Shah has gone mad, and he should give up politics and resign. Lalu Yadav's takedown of Amit Shah came after the Union Home Minister, replying to the Constitution debate in the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday, said it had become a "fashion" for the Congress to take Ambedkar's name. Earlier, former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav accused Shah and the BJP of being "anti-constitution" and spreading hatred. The Congress and the BJP clashed after Home Minister Amit Shah criticised the Congress for frequently invoking the name of BR Ambedkar.
