Скачать или смотреть Shah's Ambedkar remarks: INDIA bloc MPs march from Vijay Chowk to Parliament in protest

INDIA bloc MPs continued their protest for another day demanding apology from Union Home Minister Amit Shah for his remarks on BR Ambedkar in Parliament.

Headed by Congress General Secretary and newly appointed MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Friday's protest march to Parliament which began from Vijay Chowk was also joined by several INDIA bloc leaders.

Holding placards of 'I am Ambedkar', the INDIA bloc leaders raised slogans demanding an apology from Shah.

"Our demand is very clear. Amit Shah should apologise and he should resign from the ministry for making an unacceptable remark on Ambedkar ji. Not just Parliament, but the whole country is now agitated. This agitation will continue," said Congress MP KC Venugopal.

Rival MPs screamed and shoved in the forecourt of the Parliament building on Thursday in unprecedented scenes of unruliness, capping three days of acrimonious debate inside the House over preserving the dignity of B R Ambedkar.

Two BJP MPs were hospitalised with injuries as Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi became the centre of the ruling party’s accusations, including one by a woman MP who said he “misbehaved” with her.

After the incident, the BJP filed the police complaint against Gandhi, accusing him of "physical assault and incitement" and sought his indictment under sections of attempt to murder and other charges.

The Congress strongly rejected the claim, alleging that BJP MPs pushed its chief Mallikarjun Kharge and "physically manhandled" Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi.

Congress also lodged a complaint in connection the matter.
