New Delhi, Dec 16: Hours after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said that unemployment and inflation are the reasons behind the Parliament security breach, the BJP hit back saying that he and INDIA bloc leaders must explain the close linkages of those involved in the Parliament breach with Congress, TMC, and CPI(M).
BJP IT cell chief Amit Malviya in a post on X said, “Rahul Gandhi never disappoints, always talks trash. For the record, unemployment in India is at 3.2 per cent, the lowest in six years.”
Slamming the Congress and the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) bloc parties, Malviya said, “Instead, Rahul Gandhi and I.N.D.I Alliance leaders must explain the close linkages of those involved in the Parliament breach with Congress, TMC, and CPI(M). Rahul Gandhi, in particular, must clarify his association with Asim Sarode, who was part of Bharat Jodo Yatra and has offered to provide legal aide to the intruders.”
Earlier in the day, while speaking to the media at the party headquarters, Rahul Gandhi said, “Security breach has happened. But why it has happened. Unemployment is a big reason in the country. And due to policies of the Modi government youths are not getting employment opportunities. (Security) Breach has happened and main reason behind thus is unemployment and inflation.”
Meanwhile, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla Saturday informed members of the House he has formed a “high-powered committee” to review various aspects of security in the Parliament complex and formulate an action plan to ensure that the December 13 incident is not repeated.
In a letter to Lok Sabha members, Birla also said the report of the high-level inquiry committee set up by the Union home ministry will “soon” be shared with the House.
“In addition, I have also constituted a High Powered Committee which will review various aspects of security in the Parliament Complex and formulate a concrete action plan to ensure that such incidents do not recur,” he said in the letter. (Agencies)
