Every sacred tenet of Constitution being shredded into pieces by authoritarian regime: Kharge

NEW DELHI: In a scathing attack on the BJP-led Centre, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge alleged on Sunday that a hateful agenda, immersed in religious fundamentalism, has sought to divide the society over the last 10 years and every sacred tenet of the Constitution is being “shredded into pieces by an authoritarian regime”.

He claimed that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) practises pseudo-nationalism by making disadvantaged youngsters carry the flag of “nationalism” and “religious supremacy”, but does nothing to get them employment.

In his message to the nation on the 76th Republic Day, Kharge said it is high time that people preserved and protected the ideas and ideals of the Constitution — justice, liberty, equality and fraternity. PTI
