The Preamble to the Constitution repeated the political debate on the words “secular” and “socialist”, repeating the suggestions of some BJP leaders to remove the terms of emergency emergency with the Congress. Congress chief Mallikrajun Kharge on Monday called RSS leader Dattatreya Hosabale a “man of Manusmriti” and said that the grand old party would fight teeth and nails if any word is touched in the constitution.
Kharge said, “He does not want the poor people to come.
Claiming that Hosabale did not suggest to remove words instead of RSS, Kharge said, “RSS is always against poor people, dowstroden and scheduled castes and other communities. If they are so interested, they could remove untouchability. They claim that they are champions of untouchables. If they should be removed if they should be removed.”
Kharge said, “Instead, just talking, noise and creating confusion in the country – this is very bad, and we are against it. The party will fight teeth and nails if a word is touched in the constitution,” Kharge said.
Hosabale made a pitch to discuss whether the words “socialist” and “secular” have been put into the preface of the Constitution during the emergency days, it should continue. He commented on the Emergency during an incident and said, “Baba Saheb Ambedkar never made these words.”
“During the Emergency, when the fundamental rights were suspended, Parliament did not work, and the judiciary became lame, then these words were added.” The RSS leader said that the issue was discussed later, but no attempt was made to remove them from the preface.
“So should they remain in the preamble, should be considered,” he said.
