In a fiery rebuttal from Patna, BJP leader Syed Shahnavaz Hussain accused Rahul Gandhi of flouting parliamentary traditions with his China incursion remarks. On February 4, Hussain responded to the Congress MP’s latest disruption in the Lok Sabha, where he invoked an unpublished book.
‘The Speaker has made it crystal clear: no citations from books not yet in print,’ Hussain told IANS. Despite this directive, Rahul persists, showing blatant disregard for House procedures. This pattern, Hussain argued, reveals a deeper intent to derail national discourse.
Hussain went further, rebranding Rahul as ‘India’s anti-leader’ rather than opposition head. ‘Opposing India’s interests has become his trademark,’ he said, linking it to a series of controversial stances by the Congress scion.
On the voter list revisions in Bihar via SIR, Hussain set the record straight. Legitimate voters remain untouched; deletions target only the deceased, migrants, or relocated individuals. He slammed Akhilesh Yadav’s narrative in UP as a deliberate ploy to sow discord nationwide.
West Bengal’s political theater also came under fire. Mamata Banerjee’s accusations against the Election Commission smack of election panic, according to Hussain. ‘Bengal voters know the truth of her chaotic rule. She’s dramatizing to cover up her failures,’ he remarked.
As political temperatures rise ahead of key polls, Hussain’s broadside underscores BJP’s strategy to portray the opposition as disruptive and out of touch with ground realities. The exchanges highlight deepening rifts in India’s polarized political landscape.
