LEADER of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Saturday launched a broadside against the BJP-RSS, saying that Hindutva ideologue Vinayak Damodar Savarkar considered Manusmriti superior to the Constitution.
Speaking at the special debate to mark the 75th year of the adoption of the Constitution, Gandhi cited Savarkar's quotes that there was "nothing Indian about our Constitution."
"I want to start my speech by quoting what the supreme leader, not of the BJP but of the modern interpretation of the ideas of the RSS about the Constitution of India. The worst thing about the Constitution is that there is nothing Indian about it. Manusmriti is the scripture most worshipable after the Vedas of our Hindu nation. For centuries, this book has codified our nation's spiritual and divine march. Today, Manusmriti is law. These are the words of Savarkar," said Rahul.
