Sambidhan Bachao’ rally an attempt to save Congress, not Constitution: Odisha BJP

Bhubaneswar, July 11 (UNI) The Odisha unit of the BJP today launched a scathing attack on the Congress, claiming that its "Sambidhan Bachao" (Save the Constitution) rally in Bhubaneswar was not a sincere effort to defend constitutional values but rather a desperate move to salvage its waning political relevance.
Addressing a press conference, BJP Vice President Biranchi Tripathy accused the Congress of consistently undermining democratic values and disrespecting the Constitution throughout its history.
“The Congress party is not trying to save the Constitution; it is trying to save its own existence,” Tripathy said, pointing to the party’s declining political influence across the country.
