New Delhi, March 2 (SocialNews.XYZ) Two BJP MPs -- Dausa representative Jaskaur Meena and Chikmagalur representative Shobha Karandlaje -- filed separate complaints with Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Monday. Karandlaje has asked for Haridas's expulsion.
In a complaint to Om Birla, Karandlaje wrote, "I am appalled to report to you the misbehaviour thrust upon senior MP Jaskaur Meena by Congress MPS.... That a senior can be jostled in the House is against all norms of decency." She alleged that the concerned MP, Haridas, earlier also pushed another BJP MP who belongs to the Scheduled Caste.
Calling it a "perverse desire to vitiate the proceedings", Karandlaje asked for the expulsion of the Congress MP.
In Meena's separate letter to Birla, a copy of which is available with IANS, she said, "all the allegations labelled against me are false."
She added that, "Congress's women members of Parliament were waving banners and were coming towards me. I stopped her...She violently kept walking towards me."
This letter was not just been signed by the Dausa MP but also by a host of other BJP MPs, who earlier went to meet Om Birla to register their protest against the pandemonium that broke out in the House.
Earlier in the day, the House witnessed scattered incidents of face offs. As the Congress-led opposition demanded Amit Shah's resignation as Home Minister over the Delhi violence, the treasury benches reminded of Sonia Gandhi's speech "aar paar ki ladai" which she delivered from Ramlila Ground on December 14 last year, suggesting that it was inciting.
Congress MP from Kerala Ramya Haridas, against whom the complaint by the BJP has been made, has also written to the Speaker alleging that she was heckled by the BJP MPs. Ramya Haridas wrote: "On 2nd March at 3 p.m. inside Lok Sabha I was assaulted by MP Jaskaur Meena, Is this repeatedly happening to me as I am Dalit and woman? I request you to take action against the said MP."
Following scuffles, the Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day. But the after-effects of the heated arguments were felt even after the adjournment.
