Rajya Sabha adjourned for day amid uproar over Rahul Gandhi's democracy remarks and Adani issue

New Mumbai : On one hand, BJP is protesting against the remarks of Rahul Gandhi in London on PM Modi and his government, while on the other hand, the opposition is demanding an inquiry by the Joint Parliamentary Committee in the Adani-Hindenburg case. Amidst this uproar, Parliament was adjourned today without any work. On Thursday, March 16, Rahul Gandhi appeared in the Lok Sabha for the first time after the controversy over his remarks in London, but the proceedings of both houses were adjourned for the day after a few minutes. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi alleged that he wanted to present his side on the issue but was not allowed to speak. Talking to reporters, Rahul Gandhi said that if Indian democracy was working, I would have been able to speak in Parliament.

“The House was adjourned 1 minute after I reached today. A few days ago, the speech I gave in the House on the relationship between Narendra Modi and Adani ji was removed from the proceedings of the House. There was nothing in that speech that is not in the public record."

Rahul Gandhi further said that "I told the speaker in the house that I want to speak in the house. 4 ministers of the government have accused me, so I have the right to speak. I cannot say clearly but I do not think that I will be allowed to speak. I hope that tomorrow I will be allowed to speak in the House."

"Government and PM are scared on Adani issue"

Rahul Gandhi while talking to media said that "Government and PM are scared of Adani case so they have prepared this 'Tamasha'. I think I will not be allowed to speak in Parliament. Main question is Modiji and Adaniji What's the connection between?"

"I was not allowed to speak in the House"

Earlier in the day, Rahul Gandhi had said that if he is allowed to speak in Parliament, he will tell the House what he thinks on the issue. After this, while leaving Parliament, Rahul told reporters, "If they allow me to speak in Parliament, I will say what I feel."
