Amid the political row over the injury to BJP MP Pratap Chandra Sarangi during mega protests in Parliament today, the BJP and the Congress have shared videos to support their allegations against each other. Sharing a video in which Congress leader Rahul Gandhi approaches Mr Sarangi after the fall and then walks away, the BJP said the visuals capture the "arrogance of the Gandhi scion". The Congress, on the other hand, shared a clip and alleged that BJP MPs were stopping their Congress counterparts from entering Parliament. Look at the arrogance of the Gandhi scion.Instead of aplogising for injuring an aged BJP MP, Shri Pratap Sarangi, Rahul Gandhi walks away with accusations.So much for being mohabbat ki dukan.Such entitlement!Congress continues to be blot on democracy. pic.twitter.com/a2k9rAUbSU इस वीडियो में साफ दिख रहा है..BJP सांसद हाथों में डंडे लगे प्लेकार्ड लेकर विपक्ष के सांसदों को सदन में जाने से रोक रहे हैं।कांग्रेस अध्यक्ष मल्लिकार्जुन खरगे जी, प्रियंका गांधी जी और अन्य महिला सांसदों के साथ BJP के सांसद धक्का-मुक्की कर रहे हैं।ये सरासर गुंडई है।… pic.twitter.com/e7azBtgJiq My letter to the Hon'ble @loksabhaspeaker urging to order an inquiry into the incident which is an assault not just on me personally, but on the Leader of the Opposition, Rajya Sabha and the Congress President. pic.twitter.com/gmILQdIDYW
The Parliament today witnessed mega protests by the ruling BJP and the Opposition, with both sides accusing the other of insulting Dalit icon and architect of the Constitution BR Ambedkar. This comes amid the massive row sparked by Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks during the Constitution debate on Tuesday. While the Congress has alleged that Mr Shah had insulted BR Ambedkar, the BJP has accused the main Opposition of twisting the Home Minister's words and circulating short videos to mislead the people.
This morning, both sides took out protest marches on Parliament premises. At one point, MPs of the BJP and the Opposition faced off at Makar Dwar and raised slogans to outshout each other.
