Rahul Gandhi's anarchy, indiscipline, and rudeness have ruined Parliament's monsoon session: BJP

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has termed Opposition Leader Rahul Gandhi as irresponsible, stating that the monsoon session of Parliament has been held hostage by the whims, indiscipline, and arrogance of a leader.

BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad, while addressing journalists at the party headquarters on Thursday, called Mr. Gandhi irresponsible, non-serious, disorganized, and arrogant, saying that there is no place for political courtesy in him. He said that Mr. Gandhi sat at the gate of the Prime Minister's residence with his sister without permission. He is not an ordinary person; his father was the Prime Minister, his grandmother and great-grandfather were also Prime Ministers. He knows how strict security arrangements are made for the Prime Minister's residence.

When the Home Secretary and the Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), Jitendra Singh, went there, they said they were ready for discussion and debate. Mr. Prasad said that when Mr. Singh said the government was ready for a discussion, Mr. Gandhi said he wanted the minister's resignation. Mr. Gandhi! The country's and Parliament's politics will not run under the pressure of your arrogance, privilege, and the thought that you can do anything you want.

The BJP leader said that democracy does not work this way, and perhaps this is also the reason for the current state of his party. Mr. Gandhi does not learn from his mistakes. Then, he demanded that the Home Minister should respond to the police action in Delhi. On this demand, he did not let the House function. He said that yesterday, Home Minister Amit Shah said before the media that he is ready to listen to the full discussion and respond to all their points. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju raised the matter in the Business Advisory Committee (BAC) and in the House, saying, "We are ready for a discussion."

Everything was going on like this when Mr. Gandhi changed his demand and said that they want Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. This sequence continued, and this was made an issue. The BJP leader said that after this, Mr. Pradhan submitted his resignation to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. When it came to discussion, the government, under Mr. Modi's leadership, took two major steps - a strict law was brought on the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), the system of fast-track courts was established, and action was taken to deal with punishment and paper leak gangs.

After that, a high-level committee was formed under the chairmanship of Nandan Nilekani for reforms in the examination and NEET. He said, "We have clarified that no bullet was fired. If they had listened to Mr. Shah's statement in Parliament, they would have got answers to their questions, but they did not let the House function." Then, two absurd statements came from Mr. Gandhi. He said that if the Home Minister had ordered the firing, he should resign, and if not, then he is an incompetent minister, so he should resign.

He said that Mr. Gandhi does not even have a basic understanding of running a government. Mr. Prasad said that Mr. Shah was ready to sit in the House for 24 hours, yet Mr. Gandhi said, "No, we want his resignation, what is the use of listening to his discussion?" The country's politics will not run because of Mr. Gandhi's arrogance.
