Mumbai, December 24, 2024: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has accused the Congress party of repeatedly insulting the Constitution, drawing attention to the actions of its leaders from Jawaharlal Nehru to Rahul Gandhi. Speaking at a political event, Fadnavis slammed the Congress for undermining the values enshrined in the Indian Constitution and disregarding the contributions of its framers.
Fadnavis specifically pointed out instances from India’s political history where Congress leaders allegedly disrespected the Constitution’s spirit, suggesting that these actions have had a lasting impact on the country’s democratic foundations. He also criticized the party’s current leadership, particularly Rahul Gandhi, for continuing to challenge constitutional principles, which, according to Fadnavis, is harmful to India’s democratic progress.
This statement comes amidst the ongoing political rhetoric between the BJP and Congress, with Fadnavis reiterating the BJP’s commitment to upholding the Constitution’s values and defending democratic institutions. His remarks have sparked a renewed debate on the role of political parties in safeguarding the Constitution’s legacy.
