What did Rahul reply?
When the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha was questioned in the matter, he said that it may be in your camera. I was trying to enter through the entrance of Parliament, BJP MPs were trying to stop , push and intimidate me. So this happened. Yes, it has happened. Mallikarjun Kharge was pushed. Priyanka Gandhi was also pushed. However, we were not affected by the pushing. This is the entrance and we have the right to go inside. BJP MPs were trying to stop us from going inside. The main issue is that they are attacking the Constitution and insulting the memory of Ambedkar.
