New Delhi: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Thursday lashed out at Narendra Modi and said that Congress saved the Constitution for the last 70 years. He also accused BJP of working to divide society in the name of religion.

“PM Modi always asks what Congress did in the last 70 years. I want to tell him that Congress saved Constitution and that’s why a person like him could become PM and a poor person’s son like me could become AICC President,” IANS quoted the Congress Chief as saying.

Mallikarjun Kharge made the remarks after flagging off the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ in Banka district of Bihar.

Speaking about the contribution of the BJP in the freedom struggle of India, Kharge said that BJP has made no contribution to the freedom struggle of the country and none of its workers ever went to jail.

“BJP didn’t give freedom to the country, none of their workers went to jail. Congress granted independence to India and contributed to its development,” Kharge said.

He also attacked the BJP saying that the BJP is working to divide society in the name of religion and crush the poor.
