In a striking address, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi issued a stark warning about potential political turmoil in Bihar as state elections approach. Speaking at a press conference, he accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of orchestrating election theft in Bihar, West Bengal, and Assam, drawing attention to widespread dissatisfaction on the ground.

Gandhi emphasized a growing conflict between those defending the Constitution and those undermining it. Praising KC Venugopal's efforts on social justice and the Telangana caste census, he stressed that the Constitution holds the ultimate authority in legal matters. Gandhi illustrated this by recounting Venugopal's practice of carrying the Constitution at all times.

Examining the controversy surrounding new parliamentary bills, Gandhi likened current political maneuvers to medieval power grabs, questioning the erosion of democratic principles under the BJP's governance. He also scrutinized the cryptic resignation of Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar, suggesting a hidden narrative and expressing concerns over the silence of a once-vocal leader.
