Parliament witnessed protests on December 18, 2024, as Congress MPs demanded Union Home Minister Amit Shah's resignation over his remarks on Dr. BR Ambedkar. Shah, while responding to a Rajya Sabha debate, said it had become a "fashion" for Congress to repeatedly invoke Ambedkar's name, implying that doing so was unnecessary. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge accused Shah of insulting Ambedkar and sought an apology. In retaliation, BJP accused the opposition of exploiting the situation for political gain. Protests continued in Parliament, with Congress MPs raising slogans and holding Ambedkar's photos.
