Congress MLA Sudeep Roy Burman told a press conference in Agartala that the party would organize marches in all district headquarters to condemn Mr. Shah’s comments about Dr. Ambedkar.
“We will organize a march in all district headquarters on December 24 to condemn the remarks and demand an unconditional apology from the Union Home Minister for his remarks. Party leaders and workers will participate in the rally and will garland the statue of the original framer of the Constitution,” he said.
“The Union Home Minister’s comment on Babasaheb Ambedkar in Parliament is not a slip of the tongue as they are trying to highlight. It is a calculated comment that exposes the mindset of the party (BJP) about the Father of the Constitution”, said Mr. Roy Burman.
