New Delhi: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge slammed Union Home Minister Amit Shah for his recent speech in Parliament, calling his remarks "far from the truth." Kharge accused Shah of using the platform solely to praise Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He also alleged that the BJP was attempting to divert public attention.
Reacting to the introduction of the 'One Nation, One Election' bill in the Lok Sabha, he stated that both its advantages and drawbacks need to be debated. "When the bill comes up for discussion then we will talk about its advantages and drawbacks. It has to be discussed after meeting with everyone.
Everyone has opted together for the introduction, we will speak about it in Parliament," IANS quoted Kharge as saying. Kharge’s remarks came after the home minister’s parliamentary address on Tuesday over the 75 years of Constitution, during which Shah lashed out at the Congress party of appeasement politics. He slammed the Congress for making constitutional amendments to empower ‘one family’ while the Bharatiya Janata Party made amendments to empower citizens.
Shah said Congress amended the Constitution 77 times in its 55 years of rule whereas the BJP made 22 changes in 16 years. BJP, Congress Spar Over Ambedkar Reacting to Amit Shah's speech, the Congress party accused Home Minister of displaying .
