The uproar over the scuffle in Parliament has escalated. Meanwhile, the BJP has accused Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, of pushing a female MP, causing her fear and discomfort. Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar confirmed receiving the complaint from the female MP, who approached him in tears.
In fact, Nagaland MP Phangnon Konyak has accused someone of attacking her. Rajya Sabha Chairperson Jagdeep Dhankhar's statement acknowledged this, stating the female MP came to him while crying. He mentioned having information and a written complaint. The MP met with him and said she was in shock, prompting him to look into the matter.
'The Congress Has Lost Its Composure...'
Earlier, BJP President JP Nadda said that Congress has lost its composure. Rahul Gandhi acted undemocratically, pushing our MPs. Two of our MPs got injured. BJP's female MP from Nagaland, Phangnon Konyak, was pushed by Rahul Gandhi, which amounts to harassment.
'Rahul Gandhi Stood Too Close...'
Nagaland BJP MP Phangnon Konyak has also spoken out. She mentioned having met with the Rajya Sabha Chairman and requested protection. She felt extremely burdened and was protesting peacefully outside when Rahul Gandhi stood too close to her, making her uncomfortable. Rahul Gandhi started yelling, which didn't befit him as a leader to behave this way towards a woman MP. She expressed sadness and the need for protection. She added that being from a Scheduled Tribe, Rahul's behavior felt inappropriate.
What the Female MP Stated in Her Letter...
Female MP Konyak said in her complaint letter that she was standing just below the Makar Dwar (Parliament entrance) holding a placard. Security had created a path for MPs of other parties. Suddenly, Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi and other party MPs came towards her despite a path being made for them. Rahul Gandhi started yelling, getting so close that she felt completely uncomfortable as a woman. With a heavy heart, she stepped aside from exercising her democratic rights but believed no Parliament member should act this way.
