BJP MP Nishikant Dubey writes to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla; moves privilege proceedings against Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi

The Hindu  

BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Tuesday asked Speaker Om Birla to initiate breach of privilege proceedings against Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi for “shamelessly distorting historic and substantive facts” in his speech in the Lok Sabha on Monday. In the letter to the Speaker on Tuesday, Mr Dubey accused the Rae Bareli MP of blatantly misusing the Constitution’s Article 105, which accords privileges to parliamentarians for their comments made inside the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. Parliament Budget Session Day 4 LIVE updates Mr Dubey said that Mr Gandhi in his speech made many allegations like India had sent Foreign Minister S Jaishankar to the US to get an invite for Prime Minister Narendra Modi for U.S. President Donald Trump’s swearing-in, mobile phones were not made in India, but only assembled here and that China has captured Indian territory. “The fact remains that the Article 105 does not give absolute powers and freedom to any public representative, especially of the ilk of Rahul Gandhi, of there would be anarchy in the House.” He urged the Speaker to initiate proceedings against Mr Gandhi claiming that Parliament’s records and proceedings are a testimony to his incessant irresponsible attitude as the “guardian of ‘India Chapter of Foreign Tool-Kit” aimed at destabilizing the country.
