Congress Slams BJP’s “Ideological Coup” Bid, Vows to Defend Constitution
Sonia Gandhi, in a scathing attack on Saturday, August 2, 2025, accused the BJP of attempting an “ideological coup” to establish a theocratic corporate state. She alleged the ruling party is systematically undermining the very foundations of the Indian Constitution.
The veteran Congress leader asserted that the party remains steadfast in its commitment to defending the Constitution. She highlighted the Congress’s pivotal role in drafting and implementing the Constitution.
Gandhi underscored the Congress’s unwavering dedication to upholding the principles of justice, equality, and inclusion enshrined within the Constitution. This, she said, is non-negotiable.
This sharp criticism comes at a time of heightened political tension and underscores the growing divide between the ruling BJP and the opposition Congress. The implications for India’s democratic fabric are significant, demanding careful consideration from all citizens.
