WAYANAD: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi led a mass protest march against the amended Citizenship Act at Kalpetta in Wayanad district on Thursday.

Holding party flags, hundreds of workers took part in the two kilometre-long "Save the Constitution" march, which began from the SKMJ High School in Wayanad, Gandhi's Lok Sabha constituency.

Addressing the party workers after the rally, the former Congress president said: "Nathuram Godse and Narendra Modi believe in the same ideology. There is no difference except Narendra Modi does not have guts to say he believes in Godse."

Rahul Gandhi also accused PM Modi of using NRC and CAA to disract attention of countrymen from economic issues. "Whenever you ask Narendra Modi about unemployment and jobs, he suddenly distracts attention. NRC and CAA are not going to get jobs, the situation in Kashmir and burning Assam are not going to get jobs for our youth," he said.

"Indians are being made to prove that they are Indians. Who is Narendra Modi to decide if I am Indian? Who has given him the licence to decide who is Indian and who is not? I know I am an Indian and I do not have to prove it to anybody," Rahul said.

Leader of the Opposition in the Kerala assembly Ramesh Chennithala, KPCC president Mullappally Ramachandran and AICC secretary K C Venugopal were among the senior leaders who participated in the rally.
