Patna, June 16 (UNI) Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan strongly criticised RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav for "insulting" Bhim Rao Ambedkar, pioneer of the Indian Constitution.
The reference was to a video related to Lalu Yadav's birthday that went viral on social media showing an RJD worker presenting Yadav a picture of Ambedkar. The video shows the picture of Ambedkar kept near Lalu Yadav's feet, and the RJD chief does not even touch Baba Saheb's picture.
Soon after his arrival in Patna, Chouhan condemned the incident, asserting that “Neither Bihar nor the nation will forgive Lalu Prasad Yadav and the RJD for this disrespect towards Babasaheb.”
