TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Asserting that it is the government’s responsibility to run Parliament, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday said if the Centre has the courage, it should allow debate on issues of public importance raised by the opposition. “They are attacking democracy.
There is a non-stop attack on democracy and that is why we are fighting here,” Gandhi said, accusing the government of not allowing debate on price rise, Lakhimpur Kheri and other issues. He was asked about the government’s charge that the opposition was not allowing Parliament to function.
“What kind of government is this that it does not know how to handle Parliament? They cannot stop our voice in raising issues like price rise, Lakhimpur, MSP, Ladakh, Pegasus and suspended MPs. If you have the courage, allow the discussion to take place,” he said in a tweet in Hindi.
