Indian official stresses inclusion of original illustrations in Constitution, spurring political tension.

Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar emphasized that the authentic version of the Indian Constitution must include 22 original illustrations, prompting concern after BJP MP Radha Mohan Das Agrawal noted their absence in newer copies. Dhankhar urged the government to take strong action against any violations, stating that only Parliament can amend the Constitution. The debate caused a walkout by Congress MPs.
