New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday accused the Congress of distorting his remarks made in the Rajya Sabha on Dr B R Ambedkar during debate on the Constitution. 

 

Addressing a press conference, Amit Shah said, "My statements were misrepresented. I can never speak against Ambedkar ji. Congress is twisting my remarks on Dr B R Ambedkar." 

 

"Congress is twisting facts because BJP leaders spoke on how the NDA governments upheld the Constitution and established with facts that the Congress is anti-Ambedkar, anti-Constitution and anti-reservation," Shah further said.
