Is it a crime to take Baba Saheb’s name – Mallikarjun Kharge

Congress President and Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge said, ‘Amit Shah has insulted Ambedkar. We demand his resignation. Shah should apologize to the people of the country. When Amit Shah was talking about Baba Saheb, he said that every time you took Ambedkar’s name, if you took God’s name, you would have reached heaven 7 times. That means taking Baba Saheb’s name is a crime. At that time I tried to stop him from speaking by raising my hand, but I did not get a chance to speak. ‘The Constitution made by Baba Saheb Ambedkar was being discussed, so we remained silent.’

India will not tolerate insult to Baba Saheb- Arvind Kejriwal

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal shared a video on ‘X’ and wrote, “See how Amit Shah ji is making fun of Baba Saheb Ambedkar in Parliament.” The people of BJP have become so arrogant that they do not believe in anything. Yes, Amit Shah ji, Baba Saheb is no less than God for the children of this country. I don’t know whether there is heaven after death or not, but if Baba Saheb had not had this constitution then you people would not have allowed the exploited, the suffering, the poor to live on this earth. India will not tolerate insult to Baba Saheb. Jai Bheem.’

Chandrashekhar said, taking Baba Saheb’s name is not a ‘fashion’

Azad Samaj Party (Kashiram) chief and Lok Sabha MP Chandrashekhar Azad said that Home Minister Amit Shah’s statement is a reflection of respected Baba Saheb Dr. This is an insult to the historical contribution of Bhimrao Ambedkar and his struggle for social justice. Taking Baba Saheb’s name is not a ‘fashion’ but a symbol of equality, freedom and revolution of social change, which gave justice and rights to crores of deprived and Dalit people.

What did Amit Shah say about Baba Saheb in Rajya Sabha?

In fact, when Union Home Minister Amit Shah took part in the debate on the Constitution in the Rajya Sabha, he replied to the opposition. Giving a statement on Bhimrao Ambedkar, he said, ‘Now it has become a fashion. Ambedkar, Ambedkar, Ambedkar… If you had taken so many names of God, you would have got heaven for 7 births. This is a good thing. We are happy that you are taking the name of Ambedkar. Now say Ambedkar’s name 100 more times. But what is your feeling towards Ambedkar ji? This is what I want to tell you. Why did Ambedkar ji have to resign from the country’s first cabinet? Ambedkar ji had said many times, I am dissatisfied with the treatment meted out to Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. I do not agree with the foreign policy of the government. I do not agree with Article 370. Due to which he had to leave the cabinet. He was given assurance. But it was not completed. Due to continuous sidelining, he resigned from the cabinet.
