Key Points

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday said that the opposition INDIA bloc parties walked out of the Rajya Sabha during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speech as he was lying..

Kharge's comment came shortly after the Opposition walked out of the upper House of the Parliament while Modi was speaking about the Constitution..

They (BJP) say that we (Congress) are against the Constitution, but the truth is that BJP-RSS, Jan Sangh and their political forefathers had strongly opposed the Constitution of India..

Modi, during his reply to the Motion of Thanks on the President's address in Rajya Sabha, spoke about the importance of the Constitution formulated by Dr BR Ambedkar and how it has enabled him to hold public office..

He further attacked the Opposition, saying that he had suggested November 26 be celebrated as Constitution Day, but it is those who wave around the Constitution these days who said that we already have Republic Day and rejected my idea..
