Congress stung by Shah’s exposé, says PM Modi

As the Congress mounted an offensive against the BJP over Home Minister Amit Shah’s remarks about BR Ambedkar on Tuesday, PM Narendra Modi stepped in to hit back saying the opposition party had been stung by Shah’s exposé on its “serial insults” of the father of the Constitution.

“If the Congress and its rotten ecosystem think their malicious lies can hide their misdeeds of several years, especially their insults towards Dr Ambedkar, they are gravely mistaken!” said Modi defending Shah over his remarks made in the Rajya Sabha.

“The list of the Congress’ sins towards Dr Ambedkar includes: Getting him defeated in elections not once but twice; Pandit Nehru campaigning against him and making his loss a prestige issue; denying him a Bharat Ratna; and denying his portrait a place of pride in Parliament’s Central Hall,” said the PM.

“They are clearly stung by the facts he presented, which is why they are now indulging in theatrics,” he said.
