The BJP lashed out at the Congress and alleged that the grand old party has now become "utterly brazen" in its bid to create anarchy in India by "dismantling" every constitutional institution. BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi also attacked the opposition party over the issue and said, "Having completely transformed into a Maoist Congress of the Muslim League and embracing extreme 'dimaagi Naxal' mindset, the Congress has now become utterly brazen in its pursuit of creating anarchy in India by dismantling every constitutional institution." Trivedi said people of the country must now realise that the Congress and Gandhi have become the "greatest threat" to India's constitutional institutions and the Constitution.
The Supreme Court Bar Association strongly condemned the Kerala unit of the Congress party for sharing a post demanding the resignation of Chief Justice of India Surya Kant.
