Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday targeted PM Narendra Modi-led government in her maiden address in the Lok Sabha where she said Centre should stop projecting itself as the ‘protector of Constitution’.

Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday targeted PM Narendra Modi-led government in her maiden address in the Lok Sabha where she said Centre should stop projecting itself as the ‘protector of Constitution’.

“When we talk of political justice, the ruling party says that in 1975 many things happened, then why don’t you also learn from it. You also apologise for your mistakes. Go for elections on ballot paper," she was quoted as saying in the Lok Sabha by the media when she participated in the debate on the “Glorious Journey of 75 years on the Constitution of India”.

“The ruling party gave an example of Uttar Pradesh let me also give examples as to what happened with Maharashtra government, how an attempt was made to bring down the Himachal Pradesh government with the strength of money and what about the Goa government. Were these governments not elected by the people?” she was quoted as saying by UNI.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said the Prime Minister touches the Constitution on his forehead but he forgets to listen to the plights of people of Manipur, Sambhal and Hathras.

“The Prime Minister does not understand that the Constitution of India is not the Constitution of the Sangh. The Constitution of India has given us unity, brotherhood,” she said.

Priyanka Gandi Vadra recently won the bypolls from Wayanad.
