Attacking Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi over the ruckus created in the Parliament, Union Minister Sanjay Seth on Monday called the Congress leader a "bouncer," and asked for Rahul Gandhi's resignation.
"What Rahul Gandhi did in the Parliament would not have been done by any responsible MP... It was planted to enter the crowd... It seemed as if Rahul Gandhi isn't LoP, but a bouncer who pushed an old MP and Mukesh Rajput, and abused a tribal woman from Nagaland... They (Congress) have been defeated for the third term, but still, they did not learn because they have to sit like this (in opposition) for a long time... We have always respected the Constitution and Babasaheb Ambedkar. It is Rahul Gandhi who should resign," Sanjay Seth said. The Delhi Police registered an FIR against Rahul Gandhi, in connection to a scuffle that took place in Parliament. The tensions erupted when members of the opposition and the ruling parties held parallel protests. During the protests, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge alleged that he was pushed, and two BJP members were injured during the incident. Multiple Congress leaders have condemned the FIR against Gandhi, calling it a diversionary tactic from Shah's comments. Two BJP MPs, Pratap Sarangi and Mukesh Rajput were injured during a scuffle in Parliament. Sarangi had alleged that he was injured after Rahul Gandhi pushed another MP, who then fell on him. Sarangi claimed that he was standing near the stairs when another member of Parliament (MP) fell on him, leading to an injury on his head. The winter session of the Parliament concluded on December 20. Both Houses were adjourned sine die after uproarious scenes. (ANI)
