‎Congress alleges bid to secure two-thirds majority, accuses BJP of undermining democracy

‎New Delhi, Jun 12 (UNI) Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Friday launched a sharp attack on union Home Minister Amit Shah, accusing him of attempting to engineer a two-thirds majority for the ruling BJP-led National Democratic Alliance in the Lok Sabha ahead of the upcoming Monsoon Session of Parliament and alleging that efforts were being made to weaken Opposition parties for political gain.
‎In a strongly worded post on social media platform X, Ramesh claimed that "never before" had anyone sought to secure a two-thirds majority for his party in the manner that the union Home Minister was allegedly doing now. He asserted that Shah, whom he referred to as a "self-styled Chanakya," had faced a major setback on April 17, 2026, when the NDA failed to secure the numbers required to pass what he described as a "dangerous" Constitution Amendment Bill related to delimitation.
