Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) vice-president G. Niranjan took strong objection to Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy’s comments on the Congress manifesto and said it was not appropriate for a Union Minister to speak like a ‘religious fanatic’.
Mr. Kishan Reddy had allegedly termed the manifesto ‘anti-Hindu’ and said that if “Congress came to power, ‘Jinnah’s Constitution’ will come into effect.”
Mr. Niranjan said that the Union Minister doesn’t understand that Congress was instrumental in framing the Constitution under the leadership of B.R. Ambedkar. “Is Mr. Kishan Reddy trying to say that the Constitution written by Dr. Ambedkar and his team had enforced Jinnah’s Constitution?” he asked.
