Rahul Gandhi Accuses Lok Sabha Speaker of Curtailing Opposition Voice

The Congress leader alleges systematic denial of speaking opportunities in Parliament, while BJP defends Speaker Om Birla's emphasis on decorum.

Rahul Gandhi claims he has been repeatedly denied the opportunity to speak in Parliament, calling the proceedings 'non-democratic.'
Speaker Om Birla invoked Rule 349 to remind Gandhi of parliamentary decorum, sparking criticism from Congress leaders who allege bias.
Congress MPs, led by Gaurav Gogoi, formally protested to the Speaker, citing restrictions on opposition voices and procedural hurdles.
BJP leaders, including Jagdambika Pal, accused Gandhi of misleading the public and showing disinterest in parliamentary processes.
The controversy remains unresolved, with tensions escalating between the ruling BJP and the opposition Congress over parliamentary rights and decorum.
