Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK president M.K. Stalin on Wednesday (December 18, 2024) said only those who care about the country, its people, and safeguarding the Constitution would take the name of revolutionary B.R. Ambedkar. “They must utter the name of Ambedkar,” he added.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK president M.K. Stalin on Wednesday (December 18, 2024) said only those who care about the country, its people, and safeguarding the Constitution would take the name of revolutionary B.R. Ambedkar. “They must utter the name of Ambedkar,” he added.
His remarks come amid the uproar in Parliament over Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s reference to Dr. B. R. Ambedkar in his speech in the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday (December 17, 2024) while replying to the debate on the Constitution.
Mr. Shah had said there was now a “fashion” to keep saying “Ambedkar, Ambedkar,” but if the Opposition had taken God’s name so often, “they would have reached heaven.”
In response to the statement, Mr. Stalin said in a social media post that “only those who have committed the most sins should worry about virtue.”
