NEW DELHI: The Congress launched a fresh round of attack on Union home minister Amit Shah and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over the alleged caste atrocities committed against Dalits and Adivasis in the states including Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh where they are in power.
"Home minister Amit Shah insults Babasaheb Ambedkar in Parliament and the same anti-deprived mentality is being repeated in BJP-ruled states! In the last two days a Dalit youth is murdered in police custody in Dewas, Madhya Pradesh, in Balasore, Odisha, tribal women are tied to trees and beaten, in Bhiwani, Haryana, a Dalit student is forced to commit suicide after being unable to pay her BA exam fees, in Palghar, Maharashtra, a tribal pregnant woman has to travel 100km in search of ICU and dies," Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge wrote on X.
"Those who are poor and deprived are suffering the brunt of Manuvaad," Kharge added.
The Congress also attacked BJP after the RBI's Financial Stability Report. "The condition of the country's economy is in a bad shape. This is becoming clear from the RBI data," the party posted on X.
Kharge's comments comes ahead of the Congress' proposed Nav Satyagraha-- a 13 month-long campaign on Mahatma Gandhi, Ambedkar and the Constitution to wage a fresh fight against the ruling dispensation. The proposed agitation will start in the first week of January 2025 and end on the Republic Day of 2026.
