Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a pointed critique of India's opposition parties, accused them of maintaining regressive laws despite grandstanding with the Constitution as their mantle. Speaking at an inauguration event for two expressways, Modi claimed these parties struggle to accept BJP's successes in Delhi and surrounding states.

He highlighted the historical injustices faced by sanitation workers under previous administrations, citing a law that allowed their imprisonment for minor infractions. Modi contrasted this with his government's ongoing efforts to repeal outdated laws, aiming to rectify past wrongs and promote social justice.

Modi also underscored the political unity in Delhi and its neighboring states under BJP rule, asserting it as a mandate of public support. He accused some political factions of inciting regional tensions but maintained that such divisive politics no longer hold sway.
