Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing attack on the RSS-BJP on Sunday (April 12, 2026), alleging their main objective is to finish off the Constitution because they don't want that everyone in India is considered an equal.
Mr. Gandhi made the remarks before flagging off the 'Run For Ambedkar, Run For Constitution' marathon in Delhi, ahead of Ambedkar's birth anniversary on April 14.
"Ambedkar ji's main message was that of the Constitution. Without the Constitution, what we call India would not have been there. Today, the people who are of the mindset of RSS-BJP want to finish off the Constitution. Whatever they say, their main objective is to erase the Constitution because they don't want that everyone in India is considered an equal," Mr. Gandhi said addressing the gathering before the start of the marathon from Mandi House.

"Whatever they (RSS-BJP) do, they even bow before Ambedkar ji's statue, but their objective is to finish off the Constitution. Our objective is to protect the Constitution and strengthen the Constitution," the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha said.
