Cong hated Ambedkar, included his shameful cartoon in NCERT books: Pradhan

Quick Summary:

Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan Thursday slammed the Congress, alleging it has always hated BR Ambedkar and had even included a cartoon in an NCERT textbook showing Jawaharlal Nehru "whipping" Ambedkar.

The Union Education Minister said that during the rule of the Congress-led UPA-2 government, a shameful cartoon was included in the NCERT textbook for Class 11 in 2012 in which Pandit Nehru was shown "whipping" Babasaheb Ambedkar.

These crocodile tears of the Congress for Babasaheb are just a pretence, there is a huge difference between their words and actions.
