Democracy in Question: The Gandhi-BJP Parliamentary Clash

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has voiced strong criticism against the BJP following MP Nishikant Dubey's accusations towards the Gandhi family in the Lok Sabha. Priyanka argued that such targeting showcases a government monopoly in parliamentary proceedings, branding it a grave insult to democratic norms.

Dubey made headlines by listing books critical of the Gandhi family during the President's address motion of thanks. His remarks were challenged by Chair Krishna Prasad Tenneti, who highlighted previous rulings against such comments. Following adjournment, Congress MPs registered a formal protest with Speaker Om Birla.

Priyanka Gandhi condemned the repeated disruptions caused by Dubey, citing an ulterior motive orchestrated by the government. She highlighted the double standards in permission to address the House, particularly concerning published books. The incident led to an adjournment amid heated exchanges.
