Referring to BJP leader Gyandev Ahuja, Kharge said, “Our Leader of Opposition Tikaram Julie visited a temple, which was later washed with Gangajal by a leader with a moustache. Where has the talk of Hindu unity gone now? Before elections, Amit Shah and his followers would visit Dalit households and have meals there. Yet, Dalits and OBCs are still denied the right to drink water from public ponds and touch idols that they themselves create. Shah and Modi are trying to make Dalits and OBCs bow down, but they will not.”Continuing his attack, Kharge accused Modi of making “12 false promises” to the people.“All their promises – bringing back black money, depositing Rs 15 lakh into every citizen’s account, creating 2 crore jobs annually, ensuring cheap petrol and diesel, cleaning the Ganga, providing housing for all, guaranteeing MSP for farmers, and ending inflation – have proven to be false,” Kharge said.Other senior Congress leaders, including former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, Rajasthan Congress President Govind Singh Dotasara, Leader of Opposition Tikaram Julie, and senior leader Sachin Pilot, also addressed the gathering, criticising the BJP and accusing the central government of weakening democratic institutions.
