'Even Ambedkar Can't Abolish Constitution': PM Modi Slams Oppn, Says INDIA Bloc Trying to 'Weaken' Country
Prime Minister Narendra Modi alleged that Congress was "standing with anti-national forces" and accused the opposition INDIA bloc of "trying to weaken" the country

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday launched a scathing attack on the Opposition over Congress’ “BJP was out to destroy the Constitution” remark, saying his government revered it and even Babasaheb Ambedkar would not be able to abolish it now.

“The Constitution of the country is everything for the (BJP) government and even if Babasaheb Ambedkar himself comes, he cannot abolish the Constitution,” PM Modi said while speaking at an election rally in Rajasthan’s Barmer.

The prime minister further alleged that Congress was “standing with anti-national forces” and accused the opposition INDIA bloc of “trying to weaken” the country.

PM Modi also hit out at the Congress over comments that the country’s Constitution and democracy would be in “danger” if BJP wins a third term in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

“The Congress tried to destroy the Constitution by imposing emergency in the country and now it is taking cover in the name of the Constitution to abuse Modi,” he said.

PM Modi, in his speech, also accused Congress of not letting Babasaheb Ambedkar get Bharat Ratna.

“The Congress, which made Baba Saheb lose elections while he was alive, did not allow him to receive the Bharat Ratna, and attempted to end the Constitution by imposing an emergency in the country is today resorting to lies in the name of the Constitution just to abuse Modi,” the Prime Minister said.

PM Modi said his government came up with the idea of celebrating Constitution Day, which the Congress opposed, and also developed the ‘Panchtirthas’ associated with Ambedkar.

“It is Modi who initiated the celebration of Constitution Day for the first time in the country. I developed the five pilgrimage sites associated with Babasaheb Ambedkar. Therefore, it is necessary to be aware of the lies of the Congress and the INDI alliance, who insult Babasaheb Ambedkar and the Constitution,” he added.

The prime minister’s remarks come weeks after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi claimed that the “ultimate goal of Narendra Modi and the BJP is to destroy Babasaheb’s Constitution”.
