Lok Sabha Uproar: Rahul Gandhi Quotes 'Unpublished' Memoir, House Adjourned

  • Lok Sabha witnessed noisy scenes as Rahul Gandhi quoted from an alleged unpublished memoir of ex-Army chief Manoj Mukund Naravane during his reply to the President’s address.
  • Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Home Minister Amit Shah objected, questioning the authenticity of the material as the book was not published.
  • Speaker Om Birla ruled that Gandhi should stick to the President's address and not quote from magazine stories or unpublished works.
  • Despite the ruling, Gandhi attempted to continue, linking his remarks to concerns about China and India’s security posture, leading to further interruptions.
  • The House was repeatedly adjourned throughout the day due to the persistent uproar over Gandhi's remarks and his defiance of the Speaker's directions.

Why It Matters: Rahul Gandhi's attempt to quote an 'unpublished' memoir caused major disruptions and multiple adjournments in Lok Sabha.
