On Friday, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari refuted the Congress's assertions by asserting that no administration should amend the Constitution written by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar. At a Shiv Sena rally in support of the ruling alliance's nominee for the Nashik Lok Sabha seat, Hemant Godse, Gadkari pointed out that the Congress was disseminating misleading information about the BJP's plans.

"The Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar-drafted Constitution cannot be altered by any government. Its portions are the only ones that can be altered. The sin of altering the Constitution 80 times has been committed by Congress. They are propagating false information that we will alter the Constitution despite this, he said to PTI.

The current government's "Sab Ka Saath, Sab Ka Vikas" idea was pushed by Gadkari, who emphasised the numerous social programmes that have been put in place without any form of discrimination based on community. He emphasised the administration's dedication to inclusive growth and chastised the opposition for their unfounded accusations.

The government has decided to create facilities for the storage and processing of onions and grapes, two major crops in the Nashik region, the minister said.
