But, I believed this function was equally important. So I flew down after casting my vote,\u201d said the 54-year-old leader.<br \/>\nIn a speech that lasted close to 30 minutes, Gandhi spoke extensively of the need to ensure better \u201cbhagidaari\u201d (participation) of Dalits, tribals and OBCs in all walks of life, asserting that mere political representation was not enough.<br \/>\n\u201cI want to see the day when Dalits, tribals and backwards become leaders, not just footsoldiers, in bureaucracy and the private sector,\u201d said the former Congress president.<br \/>\nWaving a pocket-size edition of the Constitution, he alleged, \u201cAs long as this is in force, Dalits and other deprived sections of the society can hope for a better life. The BJP-RSS knows this, so they attack the Constitution, but not overtly.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cYou can see Prime Minister Narendra Modi bowing before the Constitution and the statue of Ambedkar. Today, many RSS leaders can also be seen singing paeans to Ambedkar. They do so while working against the very ideals that Ambedkar espoused,\u201d claimed Gandhi.<br \/>\n\u201cModi says representation is being given to deprived classes and cites the number of tickets they get in elections. But, he has snatched away all powers from MLAs and MPs. Even his ministers function with an OSD appointed on recommendation of the RSS breathing down their necks,\u201d alleged the Congress leader.<br \/>\nGandhi also asserted that the number of Dalits is negligible in the media, a reason why their issues do not get highlighted.<br \/>\nIn educational institutions, Dalits have still not reached the stage where \u201cwe can see them setting the question papers\u201d, he said.<br \/>\n\u201cThe public health network in the country, which was meant to serve the needs of common people, is giving way to private hospitals that are owned by Ambani, Adani and their ilk. Needless to say, there is no Dalit among the country\u2019s billionaires,\u201d Gandhi claimed.<br \/>\nThe former Congress chief said the first step in the direction of better participation of the depressed classes would be a caste census, \u201ca veritable X-ray of the society\u2026 which the Modi government wants to avoid but we are determined to push through\u201d.<br \/>\nHe also claimed that the caste survey in Bihar, ruled by the BJP-led NDA, was not up to the mark, unlike a similar exercise undertaken by his party\u2019s government in Telangana.<br \/>\nDuring his speech, Gandhi cited the example of the change that came about in the US when \u201cBlacks started having a say in the system\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26945\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26945\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-26945\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-300x157.jpeg\" alt=\"Constitution Under \u201cAttack\u201d From BJP-RSS Combine: Rahul Gandhi\" width=\"300\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-300x157.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-549x287.jpeg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-470x245.jpeg 470w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-233x122.jpeg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-230x120.jpeg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-360x188.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357-100x52.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/9613108011837017357.jpeg 661w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-26945\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Constitution Under \u201cAttack\u201d From BJP-RSS Combine: Rahul Gandhi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patna, Feb 5: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday alleged that the Constitution was under \u201cattack\u201d from the BJP-RSS combine, which was trying to hoodwink people by a show of deference towards Dalit icons like B R Ambedkar.
