Vandalisation of Constitution at Babasaheb’s statue by 'casteist' Maratha miscreants 'shameful,' says Prakash Ambedkar
The vandalisation of the Constitution of India at Babasaheb’s statue by casteist Maratha miscreants in Parbhani is absolutely very shameful to say the least.
It is not the first time such a vandalism of Babasaheb’s statue or symbol of Dalit identity has happened.
VBA Parbhani District karyakartas were the first to be on the scene and their protests led to the police filing an FIR and arresting one of the miscreants.
I request everyone to maintain law and order.
If all the miscreants are not arrested within the next 24 hours, consequences will follow!!!
