The BJP criticized the Congress on Thursday for disrupting parliamentary proceedings immediately after Priyanka Gandhi Vadra took her oath as a Lok Sabha member. The party claimed to protect the Constitution while leading efforts to undermine it, according to the BJP.
Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan expressed disapproval, stating, 'These people, who run campaigns for protecting the Constitution, used Parliament—the temple of Indian democracy—to launch Priyanka Gandhi, a scion of their so-called royal family. It's unfortunate the Congress forced an adjournment right after the oath-taking.'
Pradhan further alleged that Congress, notorious for constitutional amendments and governmental dismissals under Article 356, has historically prioritized its leadership over the country's welfare. He claimed their operations rely heavily on disruptions and chaos, a strategy the public increasingly recognizes.
