CM Sharma presents history of Ambedkar, takes a jibe at Congress over Constitution

Jaipur: CM Bhajan Lal Sharma, while presenting the history of Ambedkar during a press conference at the BJP headquarters on Tuesday, took a direct shot at the Congress. CM said, “How many memorials and schemes have been dedicated to Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Sanjay Gandhi, and Rajiv Gandhi? But what has Cong given to person who gave nation its Constitution? Congress leaders should look into their own conscience.”

CM Sharma said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has redefined the meaning of poor welfare. “Our government has followed Baba Saheb’s vision of Antyodaya,” said Rajasthan CM Sharma. He added that Congress politicized Baba Saheb Ambedkar’s legacy. In the 1952 and 1954 by-elections, Congress had defeated Baba Saheb Ambedkar. CM Sharma further accused Congress and said that after being in power for so many years, the party never awarded Baba Saheb the Bharat Ratna. It was Atal Bihari Vajpayee who made it happen. The government in London created a memorial for him, but Congress never built even a single memorial for Baba Saheb. The work of establishing the Panch Teerth was done by BJP, not Congress. BJP state president Madan Rathore & Dy CM Dr PC Bairwa were also present.
