BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad said that it is very unfortunate that opposition leader Rahul Gandhi is doing politics of anarchy and not democracy. Right now they are sitting on a dharna outside the Parliament Street Police Station without any permission or prior notice. Rahul Gandhi sometimes starts protesting outside the Prime Minister's residence, today he is sitting outside the police station. The police have told Rahul Gandhi that a complaint has already been registered on the incident he is referring to and investigation is underway.
Prasad said that the pellet gun victims had gone to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court has formed a high-powered committee to investigate it. BJP MP said, Rahul Gandhi has no respect for rules and laws. We just sat on strike wherever we felt like. Our apprehension and allegation is that the Congress party is trapped due to its stand on Vande Mataram. This message has been sent to the country that the Congress which was there in 1937 is the same in 2026 under the pressure of Muslim bias. Congress party has become a party of anarchy under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi.
