BS Yeddyurappa skips floor test: Who said what

BJP and RSS can disrespect any institution: Rahul Gandhi, Congress president

Did you notice that after the entire exercise in Karnataka Vidhan Sabha, the BJP legislators and speaker chose to leave the house before the national anthem? It shows they can disrespect any institution if in power, both BJP and RSS have disrespected institutions.

You've seen openly how the PM directly authorized purchasing of MLAs in Karnataka, so the idea that PM spreads in the country that he is fighting corruption, is a blatant lie, he is corruption. I am proud that opposition stood together and defeated the BJP and we will continue to do so.
