The Constitution is concerned, even if Babasaheb Ambedkar himself comes, he cannot abolish it. The Constitution is the Gita, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bible and Quran for the government.
For us, the Constitution is everything,” the Prime Minister said.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had last month alleged that the “ultimate goal of Modi and the BJP is to destroy Babasaheb’s Constitution” after BJP MP Anantkumar Hegde’s statement that the party needs a two-thirds majority to amend the Constitution.
The BJP had dubbed Hegde’s remarks “personal opinion” and sought clarification from him. Without taking any names, the Prime Minister said that a party in the I.N.D.I.A. bloc has called for nuclear disarmament, referring to the CPM manifesto.
“Should a country like India, whose neighbours on both sides have nuclear weapons, think about eliminating nuclear weapons?
I want to ask the Congress — on whose instructions is your I.N.D.I. alliance working?” he said, slamming the Opposition alliance for “wanting to make India powerless”
