Lok Sabha News: Rahul Gandhi is in the news everywhere because of his speech. During the discussion on the President’s address, he did not leave any opportunity to corner the government.
Parliament Session: During the discussion on the President’s address in the Lok Sabha, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Monday (July 1) gave a befitting reply to the ruling party. There came a time during the speech when Rahul made a statement about Hinduism and violence. Political swords were drawn from both sides regarding this statement of Rahul. As soon as Rahul linked Hindus with violence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stood up from his seat. He told Speaker Om Birla that this is a serious matter, because the whole society has been linked to violence.
The possibility of uproar in the lower house of Parliament, Lok Sabha, was expected only when it was decided that Rahul Gandhi was going to discuss the President’s address today. He had demanded a discussion on the issue of NEET paper leak, Agniveer and farmers in the early days of the Parliament session. But he was told that when you will be given time, then you will put forward your point. This was the reason that when Rahul got the chance, he batted on the front foot and pushed the ruling party on the back foot.
Rahul mentioned everything from Islam to Guru Nanak
Rahul Gandhi started his speech with the teachings given in all religions. He told how every religion mentions Abhay Mudra, which represents the election symbol of Congress. Leader of Opposition Rahul came to the Lok Sabha with full preparation. During his speech, Rahul mentioned everything from God to Islam and Guru Nanak. He waved the picture of Lord Shankar in the House, but by linking the talk of Hindu and violence, Rahul got into the eyes of the ruling party.
What did Rahul say, which created a ruckus in the House?
Leader of Opposition Rahul said that people who call themselves Hindus indulge in violence and hatred 24 hours a day. You are not a Hindu at all. There was a huge ruckus in the House over this statement of Rahul. The MPs of the ruling party stood up and started creating a ruckus. During this, Prime Minister Modi also stood up and said that calling the entire Hindu society violent is a serious matter. Rahul replied to this by saying that BJP and Narendra Modi are not the entire Hindu society. RSS is not the entire Hindu society.
PM-Home Minister objected to the statement of the Leader of Opposition
Even though senior leaders from BJP, including PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, took the charge on Rahul’s statement. But amidst the huge noise and uproar, Rahul stood firm on one end, while BJP also kept answering Rahul’s allegations one by one. PM Modi said that calling the entire Hindu society violent is a serious matter. Amit Shah said that Rahul Gandhi has no right to talk about fearlessness. He intimidated the entire country during the Emergency. He should apologize in the House.
BJP MP Nishikant Dubey said that the Constitution says that no person can call any person violent by linking any religion. This country runs on the Constitution. He should apologize. He talks about the Constitution.
Rahul vs Defence Minister on Agniveer
The Congress MP also accused the BJP of intimidating and threatening the minorities. Amit Shah once again stood up and refuted Rahul’s statement. Rahul also lashed out at the ruling party on the Agniveer scheme. And called it a use and throw scheme. Rahul said that Agniveers are not even getting the status of a martyr today. He said that he met the family of a martyred Agniveer soldier from Punjab. Rahul made it clear that if his government is formed, Agniveer will be abolished.
On Rahul’s allegations, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh stood up and said that Rahul is spreading confusion in Parliament. Rajnath Singh said that the Agniveer scheme has been brought after a lot of thought. This has been discussed with senior officials. The Defence Minister also made it clear that the government has no intention of withdrawing the Agniveer scheme.
MSP and Manipur issue were also mentioned
The Leader of Opposition kept speaking on paper leaks, farmers, MSP, ED action and Manipur issue. He also claimed that this time BJP is losing the seats in Gujarat. Rahul said that NEET has been designed in such a way that only the children of the rich get a chance to become doctors. When he mentioned MSP and the farmers’ movement, Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan stood up. He said that purchases are made from farmers at MSP.
PM Modi can give a reply today
