Live Mint  

A huge uproar erupted in the Rajya Sabha over alleged “derogatory” remarks made by Leader of Opposition and Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge during a debate on delimitation and the alleged imposition of Hindi under the three-language formula in the New Education Policy. While Mallikarjun Kharge has apologised and withdrawn his comments—a Hindi expression meaning ‘knocking someone out’ or ‘nailing’—the MPs erupted in uproar, alleging they were directed at the Chair. In his statement, Mallikarjun Kharge apologised to Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman Harivansh Narayan Singh and clarified that the comments were made for the government policies and not him. As the Upper House took up a discussion on the working of the Education Ministry soon after the Question Hour, several Opposition members were on their feet, demanding an apology from Minister Dharmendra Pradhan for his remarks against the Tamil Nadu government.
