Congress Announces ‘Modi Mukti Diwas’ in Response to BJP’s ‘Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas’

New Delhi: On July 12, the Congress party criticized the government’s decision to declare June 25 as ‘Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas,’ commemorating the 1975 Emergency. In retaliation, the Congress announced November 8 as ‘Aajivika Hatya Diwas,’ marking the anniversary of the 2016 demonetization.

Key Points:

Government’s Declaration: Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced June 25 as ‘Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas’ to honor those who suffered during the 1975 Emergency.
Congress’ Criticism: The Congress party, through General Secretary Jairam Ramesh, labeled the declaration as hypocritical and accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of undermining democratic principles.
‘Modi Mukti Diwas’: The Congress declared June 4, 2024, as ‘Modi Mukti Diwas,’ marking what they describe as Modi’s defeat, and vowed to annually commemorate November 8 as ‘Aajivika Hatya Diwas’ to protest demonetization.
Statements by Jairam Ramesh: Ramesh accused Modi of imposing an undeclared Emergency for ten years, attacking the Constitution, and having an ideological background that rejected democratic principles.

Conclusion: The Congress party’s announcement of ‘Modi Mukti Diwas’ and ‘Aajivika Hatya Diwas’ reflects its strong opposition to the government’s decision to mark June 25 as ‘Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas,’ emphasizing ongoing political tensions and differing interpretations of historical events in India.

This is the same non-biological Prime Minister who has systematically attacked the Constitution of India and its principles, values and institutions.

This is the same non-biological Prime Minister whose ideological family rejected the Constitution of India in November 1949 on the grounds that it was not inspired by the Manu Smriti.

This is the same non-biological Prime Minister for whom democracy means only the demo-chair.
