Rahul Gandhi's Lok Sabha Speech: Doklam or Galwan Standoff Confusion?

• Rahul Gandhi attempted to quote from an article citing former Army chief General MM Naravane's unpublished memoir during a Lok Sabha debate.
• Gandhi insisted on reading excerpts related to the Doklam standoff, claiming it highlighted patriotism, despite objections from Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.
• Speaker Om Birla ruled against reading unpublished material, leading to interventions from Kiren Rijiju and Amit Shah.
• Confusion arose online as Gandhi mentioned Doklam, but the article he quoted from, published by The Caravan, detailed the 2020 Galwan clash.
• Doklam (2017) and Galwan (2020) are distinct India-China border standoffs, with Doklam involving a 73-day trijunction standoff and Galwan a violent clash in Eastern Ladakh.

Why It Matters: Rahul Gandhi's Lok Sabha speech sparked debate over which India-China standoff he referenced from an unpublished memoir.
