New Delhi: Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Monday welcomed the Supreme Court’s observation on demolition action and said that the country runs by ‘Baba Saheb’s Constitution and not by the whip of power’.
On his social media handle X, Gandhi said, “The Supreme Court’s comment on BJP’s unconstitutional and unjust ‘bulldozer action’ is welcome. The anti-Constitutional face of the BJP, which crushed humanity and justice under the bulldozer, has now been exposed before the country.”
Gandhi said, “The bulldozer, which has become a symbol of unbridled power, has constantly and arrogantly challenged the law by crushing civil rights.”
“Under the guise of ‘instant justice’ with the aim of establishing the ‘rule of fear,’ it is often the households of the Bahujans and the poor that come under the wheels of the bulldozer,” the former Congress president said.
He added, “We expect that the Supreme Court will issue clear guidelines on this highly sensitive issue and protect the citizens from this anti-democracy campaign of the BJP governments. The country will be run by Baba Saheb’s Constitution and not by the whip of power.”
