‘Insult to Ambedkar’: Congress slams PM Modi’s ‘communal civil code’ remarks

Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh criticized PM Modi’s Independence Day speech, accusing him of ‘insulting’ BR Ambedkar by calling existing civil laws ‘communal.’ PM Modi emphasized the need for a Uniform Civil Code (UCC) to eliminate religious discrimination. The UCC proposal, part of BJP’s initiatives, aims for uniform personal laws across diverse sections of society.
