The statement by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the Rajya Sabha regarding Dr. B.R. Ambedkar has sparked significant controversy. Opposition MPs are demanding the resignation of the Union Home Minister over his remarks. Amidst this, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi made their way to the Prime Minister's Office.
Rahul Gandhi and Kharge attended a meeting at the Prime Minister's Office for the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). The committee includes the Lok Sabha Speaker and leaders of the opposition in both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, who recommend the appointment of the new NHRC chairperson.
In parallel, Congress President Kharge has reiterated his demand for Amit Shah's resignation due to his comments on Ambedkar. Meanwhile, news surfaces that Arvind Kejriwal plans to lead a protest outside the BJP headquarters concerning the same issue.
Among those representing the Aam Aadmi Party in this demonstration will be Delhi's Chief Minister Atishi, former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, and MPs Sanjay Singh and Raghav Chadha. This protest is scheduled to occur around 4 PM today. There are indications that the Trinamool Congress might also join the protest.
