Amit Shah sets condition for debate on student protests, Rahul Gandhi says 'not interested'
Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi said he was “not interested” in Amit Shah's “lecture” and sought answers over the police action against the protesters.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced on Wednesday that the government is ready to engage in a detailed parliamentary discussion regarding the student protests at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi and the subsequent police crackdown. However, he set a condition that the Opposition must submit a letter to the Speaker before 2 PM for the discussion to take place.
When asked about the objection to Shah's "lecture," the Lok Sabha Leader of the Opposition and Congress MP, Rahul Gandhi, stated that the Opposition is not interested in Shah's "lecture" and asked for answers about the police actions against the protesters. Gandhi demanded to know who gave the order to fire upon the students and why Home Minister Amit Shah was absent from Parliament, accusing Shah of lacking the courage to face the House.
