Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Wednesday said that the BJP-led central government has “weakened” institutions like Parliament and judiciary in the last 10 years.
“If they (the BJP) come to power again, they will change the Constitution and cut down on reservations. They (BJP) has weakened democracy in last 10 years, as well as institutions like Parliament and judiciary,” Vadra said while addressing a rally in Jharkhand’s Godda.
Priyanka Gandhi called Kalpana Soren, the wife of former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren “lioness,” and claimed that all those who opposed the Centre’s policies were being victimised.
“The policies of Congress have always been there to give you more power. The BJP government does not know you and is not able to make proper policies. Your CM has been jailed before the elections based on fake statements and cases. The case filed against him cannot ever be true. You are forced to contest the elections without him. PM Modi must have thought that he would win elections easily after jailing Hemant Soren. But today, Kalpana Ji is fighting Hemant Ji’s battle. She is facing all problems like a lioness. She is telling everyone about the programs of the INDIA bloc. I consider her as a younger sister of mine and a symbol of ‘Nari Shakti’,” Vadra said.
She further alleged that capitalists are eying your ‘Jal, Jungle and Jameen’ (water, forest and land)” and said that “Your land, your water… has been given to PM’s billionaire friend Adani… this is BJP’s policy. Indira Gandhi ji gave you the rights to water, forest and land.”
Vadra further said that a government led by the Congress will work for women, farmers and the youth, who have been “all along neglected by the BJP.”
Meanwhile, the Congress General Secretary performed a traditional dance with locals in Ranchi, Jharkhand.
