BJP President Nitin Nabin criticised Congress leaders after Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and others were detained during a protest near PM Narendra Modi’s residence in New Delhi. The opposition was demanding a discussion on the NEET-UG issue and resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, while Parliament witnessed disruptions over the matter.

New Delhi, July 21: BJP chief Nitin Nabin strongly condemned the protest held by Congress leaders, including party President Mallikarjun Kharge, Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, KC Venugopal and Pawan Khera near Prime Minister Narendra Modi's official residence at Lok Kalyan Marg, and said the conduct displayed by the LoP is entirely "unbecoming and condemnable."

"His behaviour clearly demonstrates that he does not take the dignity of the Leader of the Opposition's office seriously... We have consistently maintained that Rahul Gandhi is emerging as a symbol of anarchy. Certain parliamentary offices do not belong to any single party; the Prime Minister is not merely the leader of one party but the elected representative of 1.4 billion citizens. The behaviour exhibited by Rahul Gandhi and his team and their attempt to incite anarchy during their visit to the Prime Minister's residence today clearly indicates that this is not the politics of dissent, but rather the politics of anarchy. It is particularly concerning that a senior leader like Mallikarjun Kharge accompanied Rahul Gandhi...," the BJP chief said on Tuesday.
