Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of 'mudslinging' and 'attacking his opponents' during his address to the nation on Saturday.
The PM's speech came after the government's Constitution amendment bill was defeated in Parliament.
Kharge wrote on X, 'A desperate and frustrated PM [Narendra Modi] with nothing meaningful to show for the last 12 years, turned an official address to the nation into a political speech, full of mudslinging, and outright LIES.'
He also alleged misuse of official machinery ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections in two major states.
'The Model Code of Conduct is already in place and it was very clear how PM Modi misused official machinery to attack his opponents. This is a travesty of Democracy and the Constitution of India,' Kharge added.
