Congress Slams Maharashtra Govt For Using Sengol Instead Of Emblem In Emergency Ads (VIDEO)

Mumbai: Maharashtra Congress president Harshwardhan Sapkal claimed on Wednesday that the 'Sengol' has replaced the state Emblem in advertisements issued by the state government on Emergency and dubbed it a conspiracy to alter the Constitution.

"The government spent crores on propaganda. The state emblem is missing in the advertisements issued by the state government, and a Sengol is displayed instead. This is not just symbolic, but is part of a larger conspiracy to alter the Constitution", he alleged while addressing a press conference.

The Congress leader further claimed that the BJP was pushing a "Bunch of Thoughts" of RSS' second Sarsanghchalak Golwalkar Guruji over Constitutional values.

The 'Sengol', a historical sceptre from Tamil Nadu, given by the British to the first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to represent the transfer of power, was installed in the new Parliament building.
