'Congress Creating Chaos': Nitin Nabin Slams Opposition's 'Anti-Constitutional' Agenda
BJP leader Nitin Nabin accuses Congress of undermining constitutional institutions and receiving foreign support to create instability.
In a blistering attack on the opposition, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nitin Nabin has accused the Congress party of deliberately orchestrating political instability and undermining the constitutional institutions of India. Speaking at the BJP State Working Committee meeting in Ranchi, Jharkhand, Nabin alleged that the Congress is attempting to create an atmosphere of complete chaos across the country to stall India's developmental momentum.
Accusations of Institutional Subversion
Nitin Nabin claimed that those who currently claim to be the protectors of the Constitution are the same people who historically dismantled it. He asserted that the Congress party has a legacy of ignoring constitutional norms to suit its own interests.
"Those who invoke the Constitution today should remember that if anyone has torn its pages to shreds, it is the Congress party and its leaders," Nabin stated.
He further highlighted historical instances of authoritarianism, citing the imposition of President’s Rule in various states and the era of the Emergency as evidence that the Congress has preferred to run the nation according to "the rules of its own family" rather than the laws of the land.
The 'Delhi vs. Local' Divide
Turning his attention to the situation in Jharkhand, Nabin pointed out a stark disconnect between the Congress leadership in the national capital and the ground reality in the state. He specifically mentioned recent student protests, claiming that while Congress leaders in Delhi pretend to champion the cause of the youth, their local leaders remained silent during the actual demonstrations.
Nabin also took a swipe at the previous Congress administration, alleging that a "mafia raj" once dominated the medical examination system, which he claimed the BJP has since completely overhauled.
Questions for Rahul Gandhi and Foreign Influence
The BJP leader raised serious questions regarding the sources of strength for the current opposition. He suggested that the Congress is not acting alone and is receiving significant support from outside India to destabilize the country.
Directing his critique toward Rahul Gandhi, Nabin asked why the opposition is now questioning constitutional institutions when they never raised similar concerns while those same institutions functioned during the Congress's own tenure.
Claims of Selective Outrage over Elections
Nabin also addressed allegations regarding electoral processes, specifically mentioning the revision of electoral rolls in Bihar. He claimed that while the opposition alleged "stolen votes," an examination of the records revealed that Congress leaders had not filed a single claim or objection in any district during the allotted period for such filings.
Confidence in National Leadership
Concluding his address, Nitin Nabin expressed unwavering faith in the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating that 1.4 billion people pin their hopes on him. He argued that there are forces, both domestic and international, who find India's rapid progress "difficult to digest" and are constantly seeking ways to halt the nation's growth.
