Struggle in Parliament over Rahul Gandhi's statement in London, proceedings of Lok Sabha adjourned till 2 pm

The proceedings of the budget session of Parliament resumed today but as soon as it started, there was a lot of uproar in the Lok Sabha. Therefore, the proceedings of the Lok Sabha were adjourned till 2 pm. BJP today raised the issue of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's statement in London in Parliament and demanded action against Rahul. Union Minister Giriraj Singh has also given a befitting reply to Rahul's statement in London.

Giriraj Singh said, when a person insults the Prime Minister outside the country, he insults the country. Those who give statements for hours in the Lok Sabha and go abroad and say that people are not allowed to speak, the Speaker of the Lok Sabha should take action on this. At the same time, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said, he (Rahul Gandhi) has insulted the people of India and the House on foreign soil. There is freedom of speech in India and everyone keeps his point in the Parliament. He has no right to make such comments on India.

There are 35 bills pending in both the Houses of Parliament, which have to be passed, in such a situation, Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar called an all-party meeting on Sunday and discussed with all the parties regarding the smooth conduct of the session. The second phase of the budget session has started from today after a break of about a month between the counter-attacks, which will continue till April 6. During this period, along with the demand for grants and the passing of the Union Budget, 26 bills are to be placed in the Rajya Sabha and 9 pending bills in the Lok Sabha. The ruling party and the opposition with their strategy are going to be seen once again raising their voice in the House regarding their issues.
