Rahul Gandhi holding Parliament hostage: BJP
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of holding Parliament hostage with his disruptive behavior during debates. In a press conference at the BJP headquarters in New Delhi, BJP national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said that while the government has agreed to some of Gandhi's demands related to the National Exit Test (NEET) and students' issues, he continues to evade the House by "running away" after sessions.
Trivedi challenged Gandhi to participate in parliamentary debates instead of disrupting proceedings and urged him to listen to Home Minister Amit Shah's statement before leaving the House. The BJP spokesperson also criticized Gandhi for avoiding parliamentary proceedings and traveling abroad after sessions, stating that it is natural for him to run abroad afterward.
However, he challenged Gandhi to gather courage and listen to Shah's statement before departing the House.
