New Delhi: Leader of the House in Rajya Sabha J P Nadda slammed Congress over the Emergency, misuse of Article 356 and Preamble amendment, accusing the “bad lot” of having interfered with Constitution several times.
Quoting B R Ambedkar, Nadda said, “Howsoever good a Constitution may be, if those implementing it are not good, it will prove to be bad.”
Nadda described the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019 as a moment of pride. ” After the bad lot, we got the good lot. Because of PM’s Modi’s wisdom, J&K is now an inseparable part of India.” Nadda also attacked former PM Nehru for the inclusion of Article 370. He said Ambedkar had opposed the provision, while Article 35A was introduced without parliamentary debate. On Emergency, Nadda said while Congress netas say they have apologised, it’s difficult to believe them. “How do we believe this? On June 25, 2025, we will observe anti-democracy day. If there is any regret in their hearts, I invite you to join us. On the Preamble amendments, Nadda said Ambedkar had opposed the inclusion of the terms ‘secular’ and ‘socialist’.
