New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said democracy in the country will function in accordance with the Constitution and echo the voice of the people, who will reject the BJP’s “conspiracy of deceit and deception”.

He was participating in the Congress’s “SpeakUpForDemocracy” online campaign to expose what it called the designs of the BJP to topple the Ashok Gehlot dispensation in Rajasthan and other state governments run by opposition parties. A large number of party leaders participated in the digital campaign.

“India’s democracy will function in accordance with the Constitution and echo the voice of the people. The people of the country will protect democracy and the Constitution by rejecting the BJP’s conspiracy of deceit and deception,” he said in a tweet in Hindi.

The Congress government in Rajasthan is facing a threat after Gehlot’s former deputy Sachin Pilot rebelled against the party. Eighteen other MLAs are backing Pilot.

The Congress has accused the BJP of being behind the revolt, a charge denied by the saffron party.

The Congress will on Monday stage demonstrations outside all Raj Bhawans to lodge their protest against the Rajasthan Governor’s action.

The Congress has accused the Rajasthan Governor of delaying a session of the Rajasthan Assembly. It also alleged misuse of the powers of Governors in toppling opposition governments.

“Indian democracy will follow the Constitution and echo the voice of the people. Indian people will reject BJP’s deceit and conspiracies and protect Indian democracy and the Constitution,” Rahul Gandhi said in another tweet.

  1. Do Mr. Gandhi’s videos have a TRP rating? The videos are probably the best online entertainment at the moment!

  2. This guy is in his own world ….. no one respects him and his family, his own party is in the dumps but he clings on. No vision, no coherent thought, nothing he says is of any interest to the people of India, just parroting empty words, yet he clings on. He claims to speak for Indian democracy when that same democracy has shown him the door unequivocally…. yet he clings on. What a misfortune for Indian democracy that we have such a vacuous, toothless, incompetent opposition. What is his claim to speak of democracy when his very position as head of the congress party is entirely dynastic. What a farce, and what shameless people.

  3. “India’s democracy will echo voice of people & abide by Constitution.”

    Definitely!

    This is finally taking place under BJP’s rule.

  4. What is happening in Rajasthan is , simple politics as was started and practised by the Congress party since the Mrs .Indira Gandhi –daughter of Mr. Nehru was honoured with the presiden ship of the Congress party in 1959 . Her first victim was the state of Kerala which incidentally sent her grandson to Lok Sabha in last election forgetting her actions. If the country can move on for decades with congress practise of removing state Government , it will tolerate what RG calls “conspiracy of deceit and deception” History is repeating itself . Only wearer of the shoe that pinches has changed.
