Walked out as chairman, PM didn't give respect to LoP: Rajya Sabha opposition leaders

economictimes.indiatimes.com:

Rajya Sabha midway through the PM's speech on Wednesday, said they were protesting against the Chairman and the prime minister «not allowing» Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge to intervene. Kharge said he wanted to rebut the prime minister's charge against Congress and wanted to point out who all were supporting and who all were against the Constitution when it was conceptualised by the Constituent Assembly.

Flanked by leaders of INDIA bloc outside the Parliament House, Kharge said: «We walked out of the Rajya Sabha because the prime minister, while addressing the House on the President's address, told some wrong things to the House. It's his habit to lie and say things beyond the truth.

When he was speaking about the Constitution, I wanted to tell him you didn't make the Constitution, you people were against it. I was just clarifying who all were for and who all were against the Constitution. They (RSS) have opposed the Constitution.

They burnt the effigy of BR Ambedkar and Pandit Nehru… He (PM) said time and again that we (Congress) disrespected BR Ambedkar. He said it in the other House (Lok Sabha) and he is saying it today also. I wanted to tell what Babasaheb had said in praise of Congress when he was made the chairman of the drafting committee.
