The Take

Amit Shah says the Congress "consistently attempted to sideline and forget Sardar Sahab". Sardar Patel was a Congress leader. As India's first Home Minister, he banned the RSS in 1948, after Mahatma Gandhi was killed. Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury says that is "a fact the Home Minister ought to remember".
