In the ongoing controversy over Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks about Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has strongly criticized the FIR filed against her brother, Rahul Gandhi. The FIR alleges that Rahul Gandhi physically assaulted BJP MPs during a scuffle in Parliament premises. Priyanka termed the FIR a "symbol of government's desperation," asserting that the BJP is attempting to divert attention from the core issue—the alleged insult to Dr. Ambedkar. 
The controversy erupted when Amit Shah, in a Rajya Sabha speech, suggested that Congress leaders would have found a place in heaven had they chanted the name of God instead of following the fashion of repeating Dr. Ambedkar's name. Congress leaders interpreted these remarks as disrespectful to the architect of the Indian Constitution. In response, opposition MPs, including Rahul Gandhi, staged a protest demanding Shah's apology. The situation escalated into a scuffle, resulting in injuries to two BJP MPs. 
Following the incident, the BJP filed a complaint accusing Rahul Gandhi of physical assault and incitement. The Delhi Police registered an FIR against him, citing sections related to voluntary causing hurt, endangering life, and criminal intimidation. Rahul Gandhi has denied the allegations, stating that BJP members had pushed and threatened him during the protest. 
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra emphasized that the FIR is a diversionary tactic by the BJP to shift focus from the substantive issue—the alleged insult to Dr. Ambedkar. She asserted that the country will not tolerate any disrespect towards Dr. Ambedkar and criticized the BJP for attempting to distract from the real issue. 
The political landscape remains charged as both parties continue to exchange accusations. The opposition demands an apology from Amit Shah, while the BJP seeks accountability for the alleged scuffle. The situation underscores the deepening political divide and the challenges in addressing sensitive issues related to national icons.
