Constitution debate in Rajya Sabha: Congress gagged freedom of speech when in power, says Nirmala Sitharaman

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, during a Rajya Sabha debate on the Constitution, highlighted its resilience compared to other post-World War II constitutions. She criticised Congress for allegedly suppressing free speech, citing the 1951 amendment as an example of Nehru's government curbing freedoms for partisan gain.
