June 29, 2025

CONGRESS MP Shashi Tharoor on Saturday stirred debate at an Ahmedabad event, recalling that RSS ideologue M S Golwalkar had once lamented the absence of Manusmriti in the Constitution.

- DILIP SINGH KSHATRIYA @Ahmedabad

He was speaking at the discussion hosted by the Ahmedabad Management Association on "Diction, Diplomacy, and Discretion" on Saturday.

The Congress leader, currently at odds with his party over his praise for PM Narendra Modi, said that the RSS second Sarsanghchalak M S Golwalkar considered the Constitution flawed because it contained "nothing of the Manusmriti in it."
