Congress MP asked Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar in Rajya Sabha, 'How many times have you loved?'

 

The House was discussing a point of order against the Chairman's decision to delete parts of the remarks made by Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Mallikarjun Kharge.

After days of uproar, there was a light moment in the Rajya Sabha on Friday when Congress MP Pramod Tiwari asked Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar how many times he had fallen in love. On this question, the Chairman of the Upper House just smiled and did not give any answer.

The House was discussing a point of order against the Chairman's decision to delete parts of remarks made by Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Mallikarjun Kharge while replying to the motion of thanks to the President's Address. The Vice President decided to remove the remarks made by the Congress President against Prime Minister Narendra Modi under Rule 261.

Tiwari said that Kharge "has written a poem in your love," to which Dhankhar smiled and said "Shero shayari se mohabbat hoti hai ya mohabbat se shero shayari hoti hai? (Is poetry the result of love or does love lead to poetry)?" goes?)

The Congress leader immediately asked, "How many times have you loved?"

The Congress MP questioned Dhankhar's logic behind deleting the remarks made by Kharge and claimed that similar language was earlier used by former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The opposition has objected to the Chairman's decision and said that there is nothing unparliamentary in the remarks made by the Congress President.

Speaking in the Upper House of Parliament on Wednesday, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge questioned the close ties between PM Modi and businessman Gautam Adani, who is currently in the midst of a financial crisis, following the Hindenburg Research revelations.

The Congress-led opposition demanded a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) probe into the affairs of the Adani group.

The ruling BJP reacted sharply to the allegations and asked Kharge to substantiate his allegations. PM Modi on Thursday targeted the opposition in the Rajya Sabha and said that the opposition is disappointed with the new heights India is achieving.
