‘Rahul Gandhi didn’t attend 12 of 14 meetings, now blames govt’: Javadekar

Union minister Prakash Javadekar on Thursday slammed Rahul Gandhi for walking out of a meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on Defence, saying the Congress leader has "insulted" constitutional institutions by imputing that important issues are not discussed by the panel.

His remarks came a day after Gandhi and other Congress leaders walked out of a meeting of the committee and alleged that the panel's time was being wasted in discussing armed forces' uniform instead of the crucial issue of national security.

The BJP leader also said that Gandhi has remained mostly absent from the committee's meetings in the past.
