Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], December 20 (ANI): Telangana Minister Ponnam Prabhakar on Friday termed the FIR against Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi a "conspiracy" and demanded it to be withdrawn
Attacking the Bharatiya Janata Party over the issue, Prabhakar also demanded the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah for "insulting" BR Ambedkar.
"As part of a conspiracy, the BJP has filed an FIR against Rahul Gandhi. We demand that the case filed against Rahul Gandhi be withdrawn and Union Home Minister Amit Shah be removed from the Cabinet for insulting BR Ambedkar," he told ANI.
He alleged said that Lok Sabha LoP was prevented from entering the Lower House.
"Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi was prevented from entering the Parliament and some leaders fell while he was trying to enter the parliament," he added.
Earlier, Delhi Police registered an FIR against Rahul Gandhi, in connection to a scuffle that took place in Parliament.
During the protests by both the ruling and opposition, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge alleged that he was pushed, and two BJP members were injured during the incident. Multiple Congress leaders have condemned the FIR against Gandhi, calling it a diversionary tactic from Shah's comments.
Two BJP MPs, Pratap Sarangi and Mukesh Rajput were injured yesterday during a scuffle in Parliament. Sarangi had alleged that he was injured after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi pushed another MP, who then fell on him.
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said that the FIR against the LoP "was not against Rahul Gandhi; but against BR Ambedkar."
"Delhi Police will do whatever the home minister will say to them... Whatever happened in front of the Makar Dwar was completely planned...The home minister insulted BR Ambedkar, and we all demanded an apology, they planned all this to distract from the issue," Ramesh told ANI.
"He (Amit Shah) should have apologized... This FIR was not against Rahul Gandhi; this is against BR Ambedkar. It's a fake case. We were trying to protest peacefully and we all were blocked. Many MPs including me were pushed down by BJP MPs. I fell and had slight injuries also," he added. (ANI)
