BJP chief Amit Shah hit out at Congress president Rahul Gandhi for accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of having an “anti-dalit” mindset, and asked the Congress chief to spend some time to look at facts when he is not busy with “winking’. Amit Shah further said it was the opposition party that has a history of insulting dalits.
In a series of tweets, Mr Shah said the Prime Minister’s legacy includes “strongest amendments to SC/ST Act” and setting up of the OBC Commission, while the Congress legacy was about insulting Dalit leaders, opposing the Mandal Commission report and blocking a move to empower the OBC body.
Amit shah scorned Mr Gandhi as Mr Shah asked him to spend some time on facts “when you are free from winking and disrupting Parliament” and asserted that the NDA government has ensured the strongest amendment to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Check Out all his tweets:
Rahul Ji, when you are free from winking and disrupting Parliament, give some time to facts as well.
NDA Government, through a Cabinet decision and in Parliament ensured the strongest amendment to the Act.
Why are you protesting that? https://t.co/Ik2Jq1Krny

He was referring to Mr Gandhi’s apparent wink in Lok Sabha after hugging PM Modi during a debate on the no-confidence motion against the government.
Would have been good if Congress President would have spoken about his Party’s treatment towards Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, Babu Jagjivan Ram and Sitaram Kesari.
Congress way of treating Dalits is patronising and condescending. For years Congress insulted Dalit aspirations.
