Launching a scathing attack on the BJP-led central government, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is “leaving no stone unturned to break our unity.”
Addressing the ‘Samvidhan Bachao’ rally at Ramleela Maidan, Kharge said,”Modi ji leaving no stone unturned to break our unity… They leave behind the common man because they hate them. Our fight is against this hatred. For that, political power is essential…”
Further slamming the ruling party, he said The BJP only talks about morality but “repeatedly engages in unethical behaviour.”
“They steal your votes using EVMs… steal MLAs, as seen in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Uttarakhand, and Manipur. They also steal elected governments and steal your pensions. Conduct fair elections, don’t steal votes. I’ve received complaints from many places, where people claim that 1,000 votes were cast within an hour. Battery (EVM) runs out, later it shows 60-70% battery life,” he alleged.
He accused the BJP of attempting to undermine the country’s unity.
“We cannot achieve anything unless we are united. As long as we remain divided–from Kanyakumari to Kashmir and Bengal to Gujarat–we cannot achieve our goals. Every organisation in the country wants to protect the Constitution, which is the foundation of our nation. If we protect the Constitution, we will be able to protect ourselves.”
He underscored that the Constitution does not belong to any single individual but to everyone, calling for a nationwide movement to safeguard it.
“After independence, women can now become the Prime Minister, the President, MPs, MLAs, Zilla Panchayat Chairpersons, and Mayors. All of this is possible because of the Constitution. That’s why the movement to protect the Constitution should be universal–it is not just yours or mine; it belongs to everyone,” he added.
Kharge criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), remarking, “They say, ‘Ek raho, safe raho,’ but they do not let anyone stay safe. ‘Batenge toh katenge’–the ones who divide and the ones who harm are the same people.”
On being asked by a reporter if a Congress delegation will visit Sambhal, Kharge said “Jayega, jayega…”
On the repeated adjournments in Parliament, Kharge said, “They (the government) allege that we do not allow the House to function. So many elected representatives are present and want to participate in discussions, but the House is adjourned before that, with the claim that we are creating disruptions. This is their responsibility, not ours.”
On Friday, Parliament was adjourned until December 2 due to ongoing protests by Opposition MPs.
Both houses of Parliament held only brief sessions in the past week amid disruptions, as the Opposition demanded discussions on the Adani issue and the violence in Manipur and Sambhal.The winter session of Parliament began on November 25 and is scheduled to conclude on December 20. (ANI)
