New Delhi : Parliament session Tensions over the Ambedkar remark row escalated to an unprecedented level in Parliament on Thursday with ruling and opposition camps clashing with each other, leaving two BJP MPs injured and resulting in an FIR against Congress MP Rahul Gandhi
igh-voltage drama was witnessed in the Parliament as the scuffle between ruling alliance and opposition’s members on Thursday led to a blame-game over who pushed who, with two BJP MPs being injured and Mallikarjun Kharge claiming that he was physically pushed by MPs of the saffron party in the House.
Meanwhile, an FIR was registered against Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi in connection with the scuffle at the Parliament where the two BJP MPs were injured. The Congress on Friday, however, claimed that the FIR was nothing but “a diversionary tactic” in response to his stern opposition to Union home minister Amit Shah’s recent remarks on BR Ambedkar.
Both NDA and opposition group’s MPs on Thursday held demonstrations in the Parliament premises over the controversy surrounding Shah’s remarks on Ambedkar. While opposition is demanding an apology and resignation from Shah, the ruling side’s leaders are saying that it was the grand old party that insulted Ambedkar in the first place.
Lok Sabha convened for the final day of the winter session at 11 am, following which Speaker Om Birla adjourned the House sine die.
Rajya Sabha conducted the remaining bits of its business, in relation with the ‘One Nation One Election’ JPC and adjourned sine die at 12 pm.
