Mumbai: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday attacked the RSS and said that the Constitution was not just a book but had the views of what Mahatma Gandhi and Buddha had espoused.
Addressing a ‘Samvidhan Sammelan’ in Nagpur Gandhi said, “What was being spoken by Bhagwan Buddha, Gandhiji, Ambedkarji, Ashok, Phule are all in the Constitution. This book is not just a modern version but the thoughts behind it are 1000 years old… This book (shows) is a way to live and a way to die.”
Accusing RSS of attacking the Constitution, Gandhi said that the Sangh was branding words like “development and economy” to secretly attack the Constitution.
Gandhi said that a caste census was necessary to see who has how much assets in the country.
