Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], December 24 (ANI): Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Kunal Ghosh on Tuesday demanded the resignation or apology from Union Home Minister Amit Shah over his statement in Parliament on BR Ambedkar and said that the BJP has to clarify their stand.
"Union Home Minister Amit Shah insulted Dr BR Ambedkar and the spirit of the Constitution. Many parties including TMC, condemned and opposed the statement of Union Home Minister Amit Shah. He should reconsider his statement, beg your pardon or resign. Every party including TMC is protesting and after all this BJP is under pressure. They (BJP) have to take some stand and clarify their stand with the nation," Kunal Ghosh told ANI.
Earlier today, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said that the only solution to the Ambedkar controversy is that Union Home Minister Amit Shah should be dismissed and apologize to the country over his remarks on Babasaheb Ambedkar in Rajya Sabha.
Addressing a press conference, Jairam Ramesh highlighted that for the past seven days, the Congress has been observing 'Ambedkar Samman' Week, during which over 100 press conferences have been held at various locations.
"This is in response to the insult made to Ambedkar by the Home Minister on December 17. Today, meetings are being held across all districts, and a document is being prepared to be submitted to the President. The only solution to this situation is that the Home Minister should be dismissed and should apologize," the Congress leader said.
