Rijiju: Rahul Gandhi's Claim on Speaker's Promise 'Not 100% Correct'

  • Union Minister Kiren Rijiju clarified that Speaker Sandhya Ray's initiative was to resolve deadlock, not a specific promise to Rahul Gandhi.
  • Rahul Gandhi claimed the Speaker committed to letting him speak on certain issues before the Budget debate, a claim denied by the Chair.
  • Speaker Sandhya Ray stated she was unaware of any such agreement and required proper notice for raising issues.
  • Rijiju accused Congress MPs of disrupting Lok Sabha proceedings and planning 'gundagardi' against the Prime Minister.
  • The House was adjourned for the day due to the continued deadlock and disruptions, preventing the debate on the President's Address.
