Jharkhand Assembly elections: Amit Shah accuses Rahul Gandhi of showing a fake copy of the Constitution

Campaigning in Jharkhand ahead of the first phase of polling for the State Assembly this week, Mr. Shah addressed rallies in three Assembly constituencies — Chattarpur, Hazaribagh and Potka — followed by a road show in Jamshedpur West in support of National Democratic Alliance (NDA) candidates.

“Congress and Rahul Gandhi talk about the Constitution but they are the ones who are insulting the Constitution. The Constitution book that Rahul Gandhi always carries with him is just a blank paper. Rahul Gandhi has insulted Baba Saheb Ambedkar,” he alleged.

Mr. Shah also accused the Congress of seeking quotas for Muslims to boost the party’s votebank, although the Constitution does not allow reservations on the basis of religion
