Parliament session day 12 LIVE: BJP moves motion against Rahul Gandhi; Congress says, ‘got more votes than PM’

On the twelfth day of the Parliament Budget Session, the BJP has initiated a motion against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi following his recent speech in the Lok Sabha. During his address, Gandhi accused the ruling government of jeopardizing India's national interests through a trade agreement with the United States, asserting, "You have sold India." This statement has sparked significant controversy, prompting the BJP to respond with a formal motion against him. In defense, Congress highlighted that their party received more votes than Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the recent elections, emphasizing their electoral strength. The ongoing session has been marked by heightened tensions between the two parties, with the BJP seeking to counter Gandhi's allegations while Congress continues to challenge the government's policies. This political standoff reflects deeper divisions within the Indian political landscape, as both parties vie for public support and aim to influence the narrative surrounding national interests and economic policies.
