Mumbai : By-elections are going to be held in three Assembly constituencies in Karnataka, so campaigning is going on in all the three seats. Meanwhile, Congress leader and former MLA of Shigaon Syed Azeempeer Khadri (Sayed Azeempeer Khadri) on Monday (November 11) the architect of the Constitution Dr. The statement made about Babasaheb Ambedkar has created a new controversy.
Syed Ajampir Khadri, while speaking at the Shigaon Assembly by-election rally of Congress candidate Yasir Ahmed Khan Pathan, claimed that Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar was going to convert to Islam, but in the end he chose Buddhism. Had he converted to Islam, the entire Dalit community would have followed him. The names of many prominent figures in the Dalit community would also have been changed. RB Thimmapur would have become Rahim Khan, Dr. At this time, he made a statement that if Parameshwara would have become Pir Saheb, L Hanumanthaiya would have become Hasan Saheb.
Congress distanced itself from Khadri’s statement
On this occasion, Khadri highlighted the historical relationship between Dalit and Muslim communities and also mentioned the presence of Muslim dargahs near Dalit settlements. After his comments went viral on social media, the Congress party distanced itself from these statements. MLA Nagraj Yadav was on stage during Khadri’s statement. Speaking to the media, he called it an inappropriate statement. Meanwhile, BJP also reacted strongly to this.
Criticism of BJP leaders
BJP leader and Union Minister Kiren Rijiju said that Congress leader Syed Azimpur’s statement that Babasaheb Ambedkar was about to convert to Islam but eventually became a Buddhist is wrong. Babasaheb has well recorded his views in his own book. Please don’t mislead and destroy Babasaheb’s legacy, he responded.
Besides, BJP leader Amit Malviya also condemned the statement. Babasaheb has opposed Islam. He called Islam a closed society or brotherhood of Muslims for Muslims only. His words are well recorded in the book Partition of India. The opposition’s attempt to forge an alliance between Dalits and Muslims will never succeed.
