'Old rhetoric': Oppn hits back at Modi
Hindustan Times Delhi
|August 16, 2025
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Friday accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of filling constitutional bodies with “people of its ideology”, and claimed that the ruling party can go to the extent of immorality to remain in power.
Hoisting the Tricolour in Indira Bhavan — the Congress's new central office — for the first time, Kharge further reminded the opposition party that the fight over alleged manipulation of voter lists is not for winning elections but to save democracy.
“The ruling party has filled the constitutional institutions with people of its ideology instead of merit. Whenever they wanted, they appointed anyone, and whenever they wanted, they took their resignation,” he said in his address.
Kharge invoked the history of India’s freedom movement and said the story of the freedom struggle is “the story of our party”.
