An undeclared emergency prevails in the country, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge alleged on Wednesday while accusing the BJP of staging a Samvidhan Hatya Diwas “drama” to hide its governance failure. Hitting back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his jibes on the 50th anniversary of the Emergency, Kharge said a government which has no tolerance and does not allow fraternity and liberty to prosper has no right to lecture others.

Addressing a press conference at the Congress’ Indira Bhawan, Kharge slammed the BJP-RSS and said those who “played no role in the independence of the country, in framing the Constitution, and rejected Babasaheb Ambedkar’s Constitution” are raking up the Emergency, 50 years after it was imposed. The same people are now talking of saving the Constitution, he added.


Slamming Modi, Kharge said the Constitution is in danger because of him and his governance. The Congress chief also alleged that there is no freedom of expression and movement under the Modi government. Kharge said the the BJP-RSS had rejected the Constitution and stated that it did not have our cultural aspects such as elements of the Manusmriti. “They (BJP-RSS) did all this and have now been suddenly enlightened.” “You have brought in an undeclared emergency,” the Congress president said.
