Nagpur: Leader of opposition Vijay Wadettiwar has been in the news for the last few days due to the ongoing OBC-Maratha quota issue, but the latest buzz is regarding two statements he made on Sunday at Parbhani. First was that India would have split in two if Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar had converted to Islam, and the second was donation boxes must be removed from temples. On Ambedkar, Wadettiwar now claims that he was being quoted out of context. I said that if Babasaheb had converted to Islam, then in todays political scenario it would have been a big issue considering how people are pitted against each other in the name of religion, he said. On the donation boxes, Wadettiwar stood his ground, saying, If that happens, then only god will rightfully stay in temples. The priests will be gone.
