Jamshedpur, Leader of Opposition in Jharkhand Assembly Amar Kumar Bauri on Tuesday said that Congress should be kept away from power to protect the Constitution and democracy.

Speaking at a function here to mark 50 years of Emergency, the BJP leader said Congress does not have the moral right to speak about democracy and the Constitution.

He said, "Former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had killed democracy 50 years ago on this day. How is Congress talking about protecting democracy now? The country knows very well how low Congress can stoop for power." "

RJD chief Lalu Prasad named his daughter 'Misa' after she was sent to jail under MISA (Internal Security Act) during the Emergency. Today, Congress and RJD are not only sitting in each other's lap, but Lalu Prasad's daughter Misa Bharti has contested the elections. He said, "Lok Sabha elections will be held with the support of Congress."

Bauri alleged that Congress and RJD are trying to mislead the country to gain power.
