New Delhi : Union Minister Kiren Rijiju on Thursday shared a video from inside the Chamber of the Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, alleging that a large group of Congress MPs abused him and threatened Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The video shows women MPs belonging to the Congress party inside the Lok Sabha Speaker’s Chamber, where they can be seen arguing with the BJP ministers.
This is the illegal video clip taken by a Congress MP when 20-25 Congress MPs entered the Chamber of Hon’ble Speaker, abused him and threatened Honb’le Prime Minister. Rijiju further accused the Congress of encouraging its MPs to threaten the Prime Minister of the country. Our party believes in debate & discussion and never encourage MPs to threaten physically,” he added in the post on social media.
The visuals from inside the Lok Sabha showed the February 4 drama when women Congress MPs gathered near the seat of Prime Minister Modi only minutes before he was scheduled to deliver his speech. The women MPs of Congress assembled near the Prime Minister’s seat, with a massive banner with the text “Jo uchit samjho, wahin caro (Do what you think is best). The text on the banner they were holding was in reference to a sentence from an article based on General (Retd.) MM Naravane’s unpublished book ‘Four Stars of Destiny’.
“We did not abuse anyone. One-two MPs were agitated, and they expressed it. He also said that I was encouraging them, which is a lie. I was sitting quietly. In the end, I said a few things peacefully,” she said. On Tuesday, Opposition parties submitted a notice seeking the removal of Speaker Om Birla, accusing him of acting in a “blatantly partisan” manner and demanding that he step aside from presiding over the House until the matter is resolved.
