In a series of tweets, he said, “2019 will remembered for the betrayal of the people’s mandate and attempts to rip apart India’s plural fabric. 2019 will be remembered for the resilience of our students and common citizens who challenged an arrogant and a powerful government for its unconstitutional moves.”
Patel also hoped that 2020 will see a resurgence and coming together of “pro-Constitution and pro-India forces and defeat this government’s anti-Indian policies”.
Another senior party leader P Chidambaram said, “Our task is no less than the task accomplished by Abraham Lincoln in 1865 – to save the Constitution.”
