New Delhi, Dec 15 (PTI) — Rajya Sabha proceedings on Monday were adjourned till 12 noon following uproar from Treasury benches over slogans raised against Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a Congress rally in Delhi on Sunday.
Leader of the House and Union Minister J P Nadda condemned the slogans, saying they reflected the Congress party’s mindset. “With pain and an agitated heart, I want to share before the House that yesterday in the Congress party rally, slogans were shouted ‘Modi teri kabr khudegi, aaj nahi to kal khudegi’ (Modi’s grave will be dug.. if not today, then tomorrow). This type of slogan reflects the Congress party’s thinking and mindset,” Nadda said.
He called the slogans “condemnable” and demanded an apology from Leader of the Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge and senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi. “Congress has stooped to a low level in politics, and it is unimaginable,” he added.
The remarks sparked a ruckus in the Upper House, prompting Deputy Chairman Harivansh to adjourn the session till 12 noon.
