Om Birla advised PM Modi to skip Lok Sabha amid Congress disruption fears

  • Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla revealed he advised PM Modi not to attend the House on Wednesday due to fears of Congress MPs causing disruption.
  • Birla stated he received prior information that Congress MPs planned an "unprecedented" incident near the PM's chair, which could harm democratic traditions.
  • Priyanka Gandhi Vadra criticized Birla's statement, accusing the PM of hiding and the government of avoiding discussion.
  • Sources indicate women opposition MPs, primarily from Congress, positioned themselves near the PM's seat to block his entry and disrupt his address.
  • The Lok Sabha was adjourned, postponing PM Modi's address, as the government feared MPs might try to 'gherao' (surround) him upon entry.
