Congress MP and Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi sparked a political controversy in the Lok Sabha during the debate on the Anti-Paper Leak Bill. Speaking on student protests over examination irregularities, Rahul alleged that the Centre had failed to address students' concerns and claimed that peaceful protesters were subjected to police action. He also criticized the education system, alleging that it had become increasingly commercialized and influenced by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). During his speech, Rahul made remarks about Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, leading to strong objections from the Treasury benches.
BJP MPs accused Rahul Gandhi of making unsubstantiated allegations and using objectionable language inside the House. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju demanded that Rahul withdraw his remarks and apologize to Amit Shah, questioning the basis for his allegations. Amid repeated protests from the ruling party, the proceedings witnessed heated exchanges before the Speaker ordered certain portions of Rahul Gandhi's speech to be expunged from the official records. The debate continued with both sides defending their respective positions on student protests and the proposed legislation.
