Karnataka polls: Rahul says BJP made a ‘mockery of Constitution’, Shah replies Congress ‘murdered democracy’
As the political drama in Karnataka unfolds, Congress President Rahul Gandhi and BJP Chief Amit Shah locked horns on twitter as Gandhi termed BJP’s actions in the state as ‘a mockery of the constitution’. Shah responded by saying that what Congress Party has done is ‘murder of democracy’.
The BJP’s irrational insistence that it will form a Govt. in Karnataka, even though it clearly doesn’t have the numbers, is to make a mockery of our Constitution.
This morning, while the BJP celebrates its hollow victory, India will mourn the defeat of democracy.

BJP president Amit Shah said the Congress party’s “opportunist offer” of alliance to the JD(S) was a murder of democracy as it was politically motivated.The ‘Murder of Democracy’ happens the minute a desperate Congress made an ‘opportunist’ offer to the JD(S), not for Karnataka’s welfare but for their petty political gains. Shameful!

Shah, in another tweet said listed the ‘horrific’ record of the Congress Party.President of the Congress obviously doesn’t remember the glorious history of his party.
The legacy of Mr. Rahul Gandhi’s Party is the horrific Emergency, blatant misuse of Article 356, subverting the courts, media and civil society.
