Amit Shah's remarks on Ambedkar extension of long-standing RSS ideology: Siddaramaiah
The Free Press Journal - Bhopal|December 19, 2024
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Wednesday hit out at Home Minister Amit Shah for his remarks on B R Ambedkar, calling it an insult to the chief architect of the Constitution.
- NT correspondent

Shah's remarks in Parliament are just an extension of long-standing RSS ideology, he said.

The chief minister said without Ambedkar's contributions, Shah wouldn't be the Home Minister and Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister.

The CM was referring to Shah's remarks taking a swipe at the opposition, during a debate on the Constitution in the Rajya Sabha.

"Abhi ek fashion ho gaya hai - Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar. Itna naam agar bhagwan ka lete to saat janmon tak swarg mil jata (It has become a fashion to say Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar'. If they had taken God's name so many times, they would have got a place in heaven),"" Shah had said.

For the Congress party and him (Siddaramaiah), Ambedkar is not a "fashion" but an "eternal inspiration", the CM said.
