Rahul Gandhi Questions Government on Jantar Mantar Incident
Rahul Gandhi challenged the government to clarify who authorized the alleged firing of pellet guns during protests at Jantar Mantar.
In the aftermath of the chaos at Jantar Mantar, Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, called for clarity on who ordered the alleged firing of pellet guns on protesting students. He stated that the focus should not be on Home Minister Amit Shah's opinions but on accountability regarding the incident.
JP Nadda, a senior leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), criticized Rahul Gandhi for supposedly avoiding serious discussions in Parliament. He accused the Congress leader of disrupting proceedings for the last 15 days and claimed that there was ‘no firing at Jantar Mantar’ as alleged by Gandhi.
Nadda emphasized that the government is open to addressing any issues and challenged Gandhi to debate any topic in Lok Sabha, asserting that the BJP has not evaded discussions on critical matters.
