BJP attacks Constitution everyday, doesn't want to accept Dalits, tribals should get rights: Rahul Gandhi

BJP attacks the Constitution every day because it doesn't want to accept Dalits, tribals and the poor should get rights, says Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

Washim(Maharashtra):Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday claimed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) keeps attacking the Constitution everyday as it does not want to accept that Dalits, tribals and the poor should get rights. Addressing a public meeting in Maharashtra's Washim district on the occasion of tribal freedom fighter Birsa Munda's birth anniversary, Gandhi said tribals are the "original owners of the country" and their rights come first before anyone.

Tribal community members attended the rally. Gandhi alleged that the ideals of Birsa Munda were being attacked from four sides by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the BJP. Gandhi claimed that the BJP attacks the Constitution every day because they don't want to accept that Dalits, Adivasis and the poor should get rights. The Bharat Jodo Yatra led by Gandhi reached Washim district in Maharashtra's Vidarbha region on Tuesday. (PTI)
