Congress Leader Says Rahul Gandhi Could Be "2nd Ambedkar", BJP Mocks Party

Mocking the Congress for its leader's remark that party MP and Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi could prove to be the "second Ambedkar" for OBCs, the BJP has termed it an insult of Dalits as well as the social reformer, who is also called the Father of the Constitution.

In a post on X on Saturday, Congress leader Udit Raj wrote, "OBCs (Other Backward Classes) will have to think that history does not give opportunities for progress again and again. They should follow and support what Rahul Gandhi said at the Talkatora Stadium conference. If they do so, then Rahul Gandhi will prove to be the second Ambedkar for them."
