Taking a dig at the opposition's decision not to allow Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury to speak during the debate, PM Modi asked, "Why did Congress sideline Adhir Chowdhury? Was there a call from Bengal?"
Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury added, "Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra united the entire country. Rahul Gandhi's leadership is a clear sign of change in India as a whole. The TMC realised that if they did not join with the politics of Rahul Gandhi, then the party would split."
Adhir Chowdhury in the letter alleged that Minister Smriti Irani had yelled the name of President Droupadi Murmu without using any prefix like Madame or Smt during her address in the House.
Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury's Twitter account this morning paid tribute to Rajiv Gandhi by sharing his infamous words “when a big tree falls, the ground shakes”
