The Indian National Congress has announced it will observe 'Samvidhan Bachao Divas' (Save the Constitution Day) on Wednesday, coinciding with the national Constitution Day celebrations. The party has planned a comprehensive nationwide campaign to mark this significant political event.
Nationwide Campaign Against Electoral Revisions
The opposition party will organize discussions and public meetings across the country focusing on two critical issues: the alleged 'vote chori' and what they describe as the 'dangers' posed by the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. The party leadership has directed state units to ensure maximum participation in these events.
According to party sources, the decision to observe Samvidhan Bachao Divas was taken during recent high-level meetings. The Congress party aims to use this occasion to highlight its concerns about what it perceives as threats to democratic institutions and constitutional values.
Strategic Political Move
The timing of this campaign is particularly significant as it aligns with the national celebration of Constitution Day on November 26. By choosing this date, the Congress party seeks to draw attention to its commitment to protecting the Constitution while simultaneously addressing contemporary political challenges.
The party's focus on the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls indicates its growing concern about the electoral process ahead of upcoming state and national elections. Congress leaders have repeatedly expressed apprehension that such revisions could potentially disenfranchise certain sections of voters.
National Coordination and Implementation
State Congress committees have been instructed to organize events in all district headquarters and major towns. The party plans to involve senior leaders, legal experts, and constitutional scholars in these discussions to provide comprehensive perspectives on the issues at hand.
The 'vote chori' narrative that the Congress plans to highlight refers to their allegations of electoral malpractice and manipulation. Party workers have been mobilized to ensure the message reaches grassroots levels through various outreach programs.
This political initiative comes at a crucial time when opposition parties are seeking to consolidate their position on constitutional matters and electoral integrity. The Congress party's nationwide campaign is expected to set the tone for its political strategy in the coming months.
