"These people (RSS-BJP) neither had faith in the Constitution nor Ambedkar. Everyone has this proof. The RSS chief had even refused to accept the Constitution. They had no participation in the freedom movement. They mislead people," Gehlot told reporters at the Jaipur Airport on Monday.

On Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP), Gehlot said that a new name was coined for the project. But asked why the agreement was kept "secret".

Replying to a question on Rahul Gandhi allegedly pushing fellow MPs, Gehlot said, "There are CCTV cameras in Parliament premises. Every moment is videographed. Why is that videography kept hidden? The country and the world know about Rahul Gandhi," Gehlot said.
