RJD and Congress insulted Ambedkar: PM

Siwan (Bihar), June 20 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday charged the RJD and Congress with having no respect for the architect of Constitution Baba Saheb Bheemrao Ambedkar as both the had "insulted" him and that they would never apologise despite demands being made by the people.

The PM was addressing a public meeting organised here to launch and lay foundation stones for multiple development projects worth Rs 5,900 crores.

While making an oblique reference to RJD chief Lalu Prasad whose video with photo of Ambedkar at his feet had gone viral during his birthday, Modi said that such behaviour reflected that RJD and Congress had no respect for Ambedkar.

Modi said that RJD and Congress had no concern for dalits, backwards and the deprived and that they never made any effort to improve their condition when in power. On the other hand, his government was working in accordance with the principles and vision of development of all sections of society without any discrimination, he stressed.
