In a fiery session of the Lok Sabha, Panchayati Raj Minister Rajiv Ranjan Singh, also known as Lalan Singh, lashed out at the opposition, targeting the Congress and the Gandhi family. Singh accused them of 'destroying' the Constitution during the Emergency and declared the Congress party anti-Constitution.

Singh's intervention came during the discussion on the Motion of Thanks for the President's Address. He urged opposition parties like the SP and DMK not to support Congress, alleging that the real threat to the Constitution doesn't come from Prime Minister Narendra Modi but from the Congress party.

Continuing his critique, Singh noted that despite opposition members brandishing copies of the Constitution, it was the Congress that had historically 'tarnished' it. He also defended the Narendra Modi government's efforts to combat corruption and promote economic growth.
