SENIOR Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday slammed the Modi government, describing the Waqf Act as an assault on the Constitution and freedom of religion.

- PREETHA NAIR @New Delhi

Addressing the All India Congress Committee (AICC) meeting in Ahmedabad, the Leader of the Opposition accused the BJP of an "anti-Dalit" mindset after its leader sprinkled Ganga water at a temple in Rajasthan to 'purify' it following Congress's Tikaram Jully's participation in the consecration ceremony. "Our party's position is that every community, religion, and language should be respected and placed in the country. It should belong to everyone," he said.

Gandhi said that only the Congress can counter the BJP as its ideology is based on the Constitution.
