BJP Planning “Major Assault” On Constitution: Shashi Tharoor

NEW DELHI:  The BJP government is looking to make a “major assault” on the constitution if the ruling party gets a majority in both the houses of parliament, says Congress lawmaker Shashi Tharoor, who feels the attack on various constitutional provisions, like Article 370 on Kashmir and secularism, will be part of attempts to create a “Hindu rashtra” (nation).

Mr Tharoor, a second-time Lok Sabha member from Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala, also feels that the Congress and like-minded secular parties should come together on a common platform to resist the Hindutva onslaught in the next Lok Sabha elections. Even the Left parties could come on that platform post elections if necessary, according to him.
