A fierce confrontation unfolded in the Lok Sabha as BJP and Congress members locked horns over opposition leader Rahul Gandhi. Accused of making false claims about restricted speaking opportunities, Gandhi faced backlash from BJP leaders who insisted on parliamentary decorum.
Tensions escalated when eight MPs, seven from Congress and one from CPI(M), were suspended for disorderly conduct. The incident followed Gandhi's attempt to quote an article referencing a former Army chief's unpublished memoir on the India-China skirmish, further igniting the parliamentary standoff.
As BJP officials called for adherence to procedural rules, Congress members condemned the actions, branding them a threat to democratic principles. The discord reflects deep-seated rivalry and ongoing disputes between the political giants.
