New Delhi, February 2 (IANS). During the discussion of the motion of thanks on the President’s address in the Lok Sabha, there was an uproar over Rahul Gandhi’s speech. As soon as Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi raised the issue of alleged Chinese intrusion in Doklam, the atmosphere in the House became heated. During this, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh and Union Home Minister Amit Shah opposed Rahul Gandhi’s claim. After this the proceedings of the House were adjourned.
At the same time, Congress MP and leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, who was talking to the media outside the Parliament, said that I am not being allowed to speak. This is a matter of national security. These are the words of the Army Chief, and he had this conversation with Rajnath Singh and Prime Minister Modi. All I want to say is that I want to say in the House only what the Army Chief has written and what orders Rajnath Singh and Prime Minister Modi have given him.
He said that I want to speak in Parliament, but I don’t know why the Modi government is scared. The issue here is exactly what the Prime Minister and Rajnath Singh said.
Whether the land was taken or not is a different question. We will talk about that later. But before that, the leader of the country should give directions.
He said that the leader of the country should not shy away from taking decisions and should not leave them on the shoulders of others. This is what the Prime Minister has done. This is not my opinion, this is what the former Army Chief has written in a book. The book is not being allowed to be published. She is lying unavailable, and this is the Army Chief’s view.
He said why are they so afraid of the Army Chief’s approach? Why are they so afraid of what the Army Chief says? We will learn something from this. Of course, we will learn something about our Prime Minister. We will learn something about Defense Minister Rajnath Singh. But we will also learn something about the army and how the country’s political leadership let the army down.
The Congress MP said that former Army Chief Naravane has written clearly about PM Narendra Modi and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh in his book. I am quoting the same article, but I am not being allowed to speak.
The entire Modi government is afraid that if the book of the former Army Chief comes out, then the country will know the reality of Narendra Modi and Rajnath Singh. When China was coming towards us, what happened to the chest of ’56 inches’?
At the same time, Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi said that Narendra Modi, Rajnath Singh and the entire government are scared of just one line. And I will speak that line in Parliament, no one will stop me.
He said that there should be a public source, whether it is a book or a magazine. This is an excerpt from the book, which has been published in the magazine. There is no unverified source in this, so what is the problem? In such a situation, why is the Modi government afraid?
