RaGa says Amit Shah lacks courage to face House

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi dismissed Home Minister Amit Shah's offer for a parliamentary debate on police actions against students, demanding accountability and answers instead of a lecture. The opposition opposes Shah's lecture, referring to the younger generation of the country, questioning who ordered the firing and beatings of students during July 20 protests.

Gandhi accused Shah of avoiding Parliament, stating he lacks courage to face the House. Shah countered that the government is prepared for a detailed discussion in Parliament and to answer any questions, but the opposition is preventing Parliament from functioning. The standoff has caused disruptions in Parliament, with both sides accusing each other and calling for accountability.
