Constitution Under Threat: Congress Criticizes BJP-led Government

Senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala has criticized the BJP-led government, claiming the Constitution is under threat. He accused the BJP and RSS of dividing the country on religious and caste lines. Former Maharashtra CM Prithviraj Chavan and Opposition Leader Vijay Wadettiwar also voiced concerns over regional development and governance issues.

Senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala on Friday criticized the BJP-led government, claiming that the Constitution is under severe threat due to their policies. Chennithala praised Rahul Gandhi for his efforts to unite the nation amidst these challenges.

The Congress' Maharashtra in charge accused the BJP and RSS of trying to divide the country along religious and caste lines, but lauded citizens for preventing the ruling party from securing 400 seats in the recent Lok Sabha polls. He stated that had the BJP achieved such a majority, they would have altered the Constitution, and warned that the threat continues.

Chennithala expressed strong disapproval of the Eknath Shinde government over a sexual assault case in Badlapur, highlighting the delayed action by the police and the collapse of law and order in the state. Former Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan claimed that Maharashtra's development ranking has dropped to 11th place, urging voters to support the MVA for better governance. Leader of Opposition Vijay Wadettiwar demanded a 'white paper' on shifting industries from Maharashtra to Gujarat.
