  "account": "New Delhi: Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, has reiterated his willingness to engage in an open debate with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on any platform, at any time and any place. Gandhi directed his message towards Union Home Minister Amit Shah, urging him not to confuse Modi and to simply convince him to accept the challenge. Gandhi emphasized on X that there is no need to be afraid, urging Shah to convince Modi to have an open debate. Earlier, Shah had accepted the Congress leader's challenge, but had instead urged Gandhi to discuss the issue on the proper forum, which is within Parliament. The BJP and Opposition parties are currently engaged in a political confrontation over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Shah challenged Gandhi to engage in a parliamentary discussion, stating that the government is ready to convene a special session if the Congress formally requests a debate.",
