It is well-documented how much anger Congress had towards Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar. They felt irritated with his words. Due to this anger, they did everything to defeat Babasaheb in the two elections (1952, and 1954) . They did not consider Babasaheb worthy of the Bharat Ratna.

Because their motto remains, 'Dusre ki lakeer chhoti karo (to limit others)'. This is why Congress' condition is like this. The country's grand old party, connected with the freedom struggle, and this is their plight?
