**New Delhi** – The ongoing parliamentary debate on the Constitution has been framed as a resounding victory for the ruling party, which claims to have exposed the opposition’s alleged disregard for the nation’s foundational document. A member of the ruling party highlighted the perceived decline in parliamentary discourse, criticizing what they described as an opposition inability to appreciate the “Indianness” of the Constitution, accusing them of viewing it through a “Western lens.”

The ruling party further alleged that the opposition’s recent electoral defeats are a direct result of their perceived hypocrisy, claiming they wield a “fake, blank Constitution.” They contrasted their own record of amending the Constitution 22 times with the Congress’s 77 amendments, implying a more responsible approach to constitutional change.

The ruling party also attacked the opposition’s inconsistent reactions to election results, citing accusations of EVM malfunctioning in losses and celebratory oath-taking ceremonies following victories as evidence of hypocrisy. The speech further touted the recent successes of the government, including the largely unopposed new education policy and the introduction of three criminal justice laws, described as a move to “Indianize” the system and free the country from a “mindset of slavery.” The Prime Minister was singled out for praise for his role in these reforms. The debate, the ruling party asserted, has served as a valuable lesson for both the public and future generations, clarifying which party truly upholds the Constitution’s values.
