JAMMU, Dec 20 : The Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee chief, Tariq Hameed Karra along with working presidents Tara Chand and Raman Bhalla, led a protest today at Satwari Chowk in Jammu against the Union Home Minister, Amit Shah, for his offensive and disrespectful remarks against Bharat Ratna Dr. BR Ambedkar.
PCC chief said that these remarks insult the unparalleled legacy of the architect of our Constitution and have deeply hurt the sentiments of millions who view Dr Ambedkar as a symbol of equality, justice and social transformation.
He said BJP MPs have sunk to new lows by attempting to misbehave with the Congress president, the Leader of the Opposition and other MPs. In a further act of desperation, they registered a false FIR against the Leader of the Opposition, Rahul Gandhi.
These disgraceful actions are blatant attempts to divert attention from Amit Shah’s deeply disrespectful remarks about Dr Ambedkar and to suppress voices of dissent.
