Those believing in Manusmriti will have issues with Bhim: Rahul Gandhi | India News – Times of India

Slamming home minister Amit Shah for his speech in Rajya Sabha during the discussion on the Constitution and his remarks related to B R Ambedkar, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday said those who believe in the Manusmriti, obviously won’t be comfortable with Ambedkar.
His reaction came in response to Shah’s remarks where he said that while Congress keeps chanting Ambedkar’s name, the fact is Pandit Jawaharlal Nehu never cared for Ambedkar or his views when he was part of govt. Shah further alleged that Nehru was quite comfortable when Ambedkar quit the govt. In a post on X in Hindi, Rahul said, “Those who believe in Manusmriti will definitely have problems with Ambedkar ji.”
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said, “The way the home minister insulted Ambedkar in Rajya Sabha, it only proves BJP-RSS are against the tricolour”. Kharge said through his remarks, Shah was only “trying to mislead the people through lies, and this won’t go on for long”. “He (Shah) has come to Parliament just to praise PM Modi…,” he said. Congress general secretary communications Jairam Ramesh said Shah’s remarks reflected BJP and RSS’s hatred for Ambedkar.
