Anurag Thakur, a senior BJP MP, claims that the BJP's policies are reflective of Dr. BR Ambedkar’s ideologies. He insists that the Narendra Modi government is dedicated to building a nation guided by the principles of the architect of the Indian Constitution.

Thakur targeted the Congress, accusing the opposition of manipulating the Constitution for political gains. He highlighted the BJP-led NDA government's push for the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), inspired by Ambedkar’s ideas, as a move to ensure legal equality across communities.

The campaign is part of the BJP's ’Samvidhan Gaurav Abhiyan’ celebrating 75 years of the Indian Constitution. Meanwhile, Odisha BJP plans seminars to counter Congress's alleged constitutional propaganda.
