Ambedkar statue put in cage, cops deployed for safety in UP
A statue of BR Ambedkar has been locked inside an iron cage and three Home Guard jawans have been deployed for its protection in Uttar Pradesh's Budaun. This comes after a saffron-coloured Ambedkar statue installed in the district was painted blue by a BSP leader. Earlier, UP's Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University installed iron grills around the Dalit icon's statue.
