RSS chief Bhagwat’s statement shows he doesn’t believe in Constitution: Congress

NEW DELHI: The Congress on Thursday stepped up its attack on RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat over his remarks that India’s “true independence” was established on the day of Ram temple’s consecration, saying the statement has made it clear that he does not believe in the Constitution.

The opposition party also said Bhagwat’s statement was an insult to those who fought and made innumerable sacrifices for the freedom of the country.
