Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman criticized past Constitutional amendments made by Congress governments, stating they were designed to protect those in power rather than to fortify democracy. She pointed out the First Amendment in 1951, which limited freedom of speech, amendments during the Emergency, and efforts to circumvent judicial scrutiny. Sitharaman refuted accusations of dishonesty and discussed significant historical judicial events, including the Keshavananda Bharti case, which reportedly angered Srimati Indira Gandhi. She also contrasted the Congress party’s opposition to economic reforms such as GST and OBC reservations with the BJP’s legislative actions and dedication to economic growth and social justice.
