BJP's CR Kesavan called Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's post on Constitution Day "deeply hypocritical". "Rahul Gandhi talking about the virtues of our sacred Constitution is as hypocritical as Aurangzeb preaching about tolerance and as paradoxical as Mir Jafar lecturing on loyalty," Kesavan said. He accused the Congress party of "murdering Constitution" during 1975 by imposing the Emergency.
