| Modi is not the Country, RSS is not the Parliament and Manu Smruti is not the Constitution, says Kanhaiya Kumar (video below) |
JNUSU president Kanhaiya Kumar made a memorable speech on the occasion of the 125th birth anniversary of Ambedkar at Nagpur.
Taking a dig at RSS, which is headquartered at Nagpur, Kanhaiya Kumar said the city was the land of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar, where the Dalit leader and his followers had converted to Buddhism.
"This is 'Deekshabhoomi' not a Sangh-bhoomi," he said,
There was an urgent need to abolish Bhrahminism from the society. In order to run a nation efficiently, we need people with ‘Full Brains’ and not Half Pants’, said Kanhaiya Kumar.
“We should shun Modi Bhakti and instead have Desh Bhakti. Modi is not the Country, RSS is not the Parliament and Manu Smruti is not the Constitution.”
Kanhaiya Kumar appealed to those hurling shoe saying they should throw a pair so that some poor person can benefit. He also suggested to bring an extra pair of chappals since it was very hot outside.
In his nearly 30 minute speech, Kanhaiya Kumar touched upon a range of issues from attacks on educational institutions by Modi government to its economic policy and to the sedition charges slapped on him.
