They have insulted my background, constitutional position: Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 19 December 2023
Trinamool Congress MP Kalyan Banerjee triggered an unseemly row by mimicking Rajya Sabha chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar during a 'mock session' held by opposition MPs protesting the suspension of 141 MPs. The video was filmed by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and posted on social media before being removed. Banerjee mimicked Dhankhar's earlier protest against allegations of being too reverential to the Prime Minister. Dhankhar expressed his upset in the Rajya Sabha, stating that the episode insulted his background as a farmer and Jat, as well as his constitutional position.

LS Polls 2024: Congress manifesto launch | Priyanka Gandhi, Kharge slam BJP, Modi | Oneindia News

Top Congress leaders, including the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi, held a rally in Jaipur on Saturday, April 6, to publicly launch its election manifesto 'Nyay Patra'. The Jaipur public rally comes a day after the Congress released its manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls promising a legal guarantee for MSP, and passing a constitutional amendment to raise the 50 per cent cap on reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs among others. The release of the manifesto 'Nyay Patra' was announced by Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, expressing happiness and pride in her mother Sonia Gandhi's presence in Rajasthan after becoming a member of the Rajya Sabha. Unemployment, claimed to be at its peak, was criticised, with allegations made against the BJP and Modi government for failing to address the issue adequately. The Agniveer scheme, accused of shattering people's hopes, was mentioned, along with concerns raised about leaked papers in various states and the ongoing protests by farmers, suggesting that PM Modi is unwilling to heed their grievances.
