Modi's habit is to lie, mislead people: RS LoP Mallikarjun Kharge after Oppn MP's stage walkout during PM's speech
Opposition staged a walkout in Rajya Sabha, the leader of Opposition in the upper House Mallikarjun Kharge said that they walked out from the House because Prime Minister Narendra Modi was speaking some 'wrong things' during the reply to the motion of thanks.
«It's his habit to lie, mislead people and say things beyond truth. I have just asked him that, when he was speaking about the Constitution, you didn't make the Constitution, you people were against it,» Kharge alleged.
He further said, «I just wanted to clarify who was for Constitution and who was against it. RSS wrote in their editorial in 1950 that the bad thing about the Constitution is that there is nothing about India's history. They opposed the Constitution. They are against it since the beginning and they say that they are for it. Effigies of Ambedkar, Nehru were burnt. Now they are saying that we are against it.»
NCP-SCP chief Sharad Pawar also came in support of Kharge and said that it is the House's responsibility to respect the LoP.

«He (Mallikarjun Kahrge) is on a constitutional post. Be it the PM or the Chairman of the House, it's their responsibility to respect him, but today it was all ignored and hence the entire opposition is with him, and hence we walked out,» Pawar said.
As the incumbent prime minister was speaking the Opposition continued with their sloganeering saying 'LoP ko bolne do' (let the LoP speak), disrupting the house.
