Parliament session LIVE: NEET designed to benefit rich students, says Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha

Leader of the House suggests to Chair Jagdeep Dhankhar that remarks of AAP MP Sanjay Singh be expunged from the record. Mr. Singh says that any of his words which are not in order may be struck out. 

Mr. Singh says that Mr. Raut, himself and Mr. Kejriwal were released from jail and that the Court said there was no connection between Mr. Kejriwal and the money trial. Mr. Dhankhar highlights that the issue being discussed is sub judice.

Quoting Vajpayee, Mr. Singh urges the centre to do politics with a big mind. It is not right to target Opposition members, it is bad politics, he says. Who put the persons in jail, Chair Dhankhar asks, to which Mr. Singh says that it is the Centre’s enforcement agencies, by creating false charges. To which Chair says that it is the legal system. 

Mr. Singh continues his speech, cautioning that whatever party is in charge should not put Opposition members in jail, this will destroy the party. 

This election has given you a result to think about he says. The speech talks about a clear mandate, but the BJP only won 240 seats, he points out, stating that this is fewer than Modi’s ‘400 paar’ slogan. You should think about your shortcomings, he says to the BJP, asserting that arrogance is one of their weaknesses. 

Mr. Singh also highlights how much money was spent on infrastructure for Ayodhya, noting that there was water leakage in the Ram temple. Mr. Dhankhar said that he shoud check his assertions, and that he cannot make a speech in the House as he does outside. 

He also asks the party to not become Bharatiya Jaghada Party.
