The Congress leader alleged that the RSS-BJP's mission was to "destroy" the Constitution of the country, while the INDIA bloc "wanted to protect" it.
"PM (Narendra) Modi calls you 'vanvasi' as the BJP believes that land, forest and water belong to the saffron party, RSS and capitalists. The BJP believes in grabbing tribal land under its newly coined word development. It wants to snatch 'Jal, Jungle, Jameen' (water, forest, land) from tribals," Mr. Gandhi alleged while addressing a rally in Jharkhand's Simdega.
He also claimed that the Constitution was under "constant attack" and the INDIA bloc was making "all efforts to protect it".
“The Congress, if voted to power, will ensure caste census and removal of the 50% cap on the reservation,” Mr. Gandhi claimed.
