The Congress party staged widespread protests across Hyderabad today in response to the alleged derogatory remarks made by Union Minister Amit Shah against Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the principal architect of the Indian Constitution. The party demanded Shah’s immediate dismissal, emphasizing the need for accountability over his statements.
The protests began with a symbolic march from the Dr. B.R. Ambedkar statue at Tank Bund to the Hyderabad Collectorate. Led by Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka and Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) Chief Mahesh Goud, the march saw strong participation from Congress leaders, party workers, and Ambedkar followers.
During the demonstration, Congress leaders submitted representations to district collectors urging swift action against Amit Shah. The party leaders presented memoranda to the Hyderabad Collector, highlighting the seriousness of Shah’s alleged comments and their potential to tarnish the legacy of Dr. Ambedkar, a revered figure in Indian history and a champion of social justice.
TPCC Chief Mahesh Goud, addressing the media, condemned the remarks, stating, “Dr. Ambedkar is a revered figure, and any attempt to tarnish his image will not be tolerated. The Union Minister must be held accountable for his statements.” Goud emphasized that the Congress party would not allow such actions to go unchecked, stressing the importance of protecting the dignity of national leaders like Ambedkar.
The protest concluded peacefully, with leaders reiterating their call for Amit Shah’s removal from the Cabinet to safeguard the honor of leaders like Dr. Ambedkar. The Congress party’s stand reflects its unwavering commitment to uphold the legacy of those who fought for social equality and justice in India.
The protest in Hyderabad is one of many across the country, as political leaders continue to express their outrage over Shah’s alleged comments. The controversy surrounding the remarks has sparked widespread debate, with calls for a formal apology from the Union Minister.
