Do not politicize OROP: Venkaiah Naidu to Congress

Parliament witnessed dramatic scenes as Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad locked horns during a heated debate. The confrontation unfolded during discussions around a motion against Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. Rahul Gandhi repeated his claim that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had been “compromised” and alleged he was repeatedly stopped from raising the issue earlier in the House. The BJP strongly pushed back, with Ravi Shankar Prasad asserting that the Prime Minister could never be compromised and questioning the credibility of claims linked to an unpublished memoir of former Army Chief M M Naravane. The sharp exchange quickly became the highlight of the parliamentary debate.
