Meanwhile, Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi became angry when several ruling party MPs repeatedly invoked his name during the Lok Sabha debate.
Rahul Gandhi said that this is the first time in the country's parliamentary history that the Leader of the Opposition is being denied the opportunity to speak, while his name is being repeatedly invoked during discussions. He said this is against parliamentary traditions.
Following Home Minister Amit Shah's statement today, the debate between the government and the opposition on this issue is likely to intensify. This ongoing confrontation within Parliament could further heat up the political atmosphere during the budget session.
