BJP charges Lalu with insulting Babasaheb Ambedkar

Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary on Saturday charged RJD president Lalu Prasad with having “insulted” Babasaheb Ambedkar by having a portrait of the Dalit icon placed at his feet.

Addressing a press conference, Choudhary, who is a former state president of the BJP, also played a video clip of the



incident that took place when the ex-CM was celebrating his 78th birthday earlier this week.

In the video, the ailing leader can be seen seated on a couch with his feet placed on a sofa nearby. A supporter enters the room carrying the portrait and places it close to Prasad’s feet before greeting the RJD chief.
