"The Congress party's recent show of admiration for Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar is nothing but a hollow drama," senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad said while addressing a press conference at the BJP headquarters here.
Accusing the Congress of hypocrisy regarding the legacy of former Minister of Law and Justice B R Ambedkar, Prasad said the same Congress, which has consistently disrespected, mocked and humiliated Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar, is now pretending to demand rights in his name.
"The Congress party has always been anti-Ambedkar. This is why they neither established nor allowed the establishment of memorials for Babasaheb," the senior BJP leader said.
In contrast, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government has consistently incorporated Babasaheb's ideals into its policies and has restored sites related to him, Prasad said.
