During his two-day visit to Ladakh, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi engaged with youth during an event in Leh on Friday, news agency ANI reported. While engaging with the youth, Congress MP stated: "India got freedom in 1947 and consolidation of freedom in India is the constitution. The Constitution is a set of rules...The way you put Constitution into action is by setting up institutions that support the vision of the Constitution. The Lok Sabha, and Rajya Sabha, planning commission, forces all these elements... Now what the BJP and RSS is doing is it is placing its own people in key positions of institutional structure."
