The ongoing Preamble debate has intensified, with sharp political exchanges following remarks by Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar, who said the Constitution’s Preamble was altered during the Emergency to add "socialist" and "secular," calling preamble the “seed” of the Constitution.
RJD MP Manoj Jha hit back, asking if the issue is with the words or their inclusion. Earlier, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor had responded to Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Manusmriti’ tweet, noting historical RSS criticism of the Constitution but claimed the RSS has “moved on.”
The row was first triggered by RSS leader Dattatreya Hosabale, who questioned the additions during an Emergency anniversary event.
