There is an atmosphere of commotion in the political circles of madhya pradesh regarding the removal of thephotograph of the country’s first prime minister Jawahar Lal Nehru from the madhya pradesh Assembly.Congress has expressed strong opposition to this. Due to this, there was an uproar on the very first day of thewinter session of the assembly in Madhya Pradesh.The photo of former prime minister jawaharlal nehru has been removed and the photo of BR Ambedkar hasbeen replaced in his place. Since 1996, photographs of jawaharlal nehru and mahatma gandhi were placedbehind the Speaker’s seat, but now Pandit Nehru’s photo has been removed and Dr. BR Ambedkar’s photo hasbeen placed in its place. congress leaders have protested against this. The statement of senior congress leaderof madhya pradesh kamal nath has come to light on this. Expressing his views through social media, he hastargeted BJP. He has called it wrong and has also called it small minded.He tweeted - Removing the portrait of the great freedom fighter, the country’s first prime minister and nationbuilder Pandit jawaharlal nehru from the madhya pradesh assembly is highly condemnable. I welcome theinstallation of the portrait of Constitution maker baba Saheb Ambedkar in the Assembly. baba Saheb’s picturecould have been placed at a place of honor in the assembly, but Pandit Nehru’s picture was deliberatelyremoved. I want to remind that I had announced that if congress government is formed in madhya pradesh, thebiggest statue of baba Saheb Ambedkar will be installed. If the bjp government really wanted to respect Dr.Ambedkar, it would have taken the initiative to install the biggest statue of baba Saheb in the state and not
show its small mentality by removing the picture of Pandit Nehru. I demand that Pandit Nehru’s portrait shouldbe installed in the madhya pradesh assembly and the construction of the tallest statue of Dr. Ambedkar in thestate should be started.
