News India Live, Digital Desk: Amidst the winter of Delhi, the temperature of the Parliament House has once again reached sky high. On Tuesday, an incident happened in Rajya Sabha which shocked everyone. The debate was taking place on a bill, but the issue was about the national anthem of the country i.e. ‘Vande Mataram’ But it got stuck.
The situation reached such a stage that the Home Minister Amit Shah Congress President and Leader of Opposition filled the House Mallikarjun Kharge Asked in harsh words, “Is it a crime to say ‘Vande Mataram’ in this country?”
Let us know in simple words what was the spark that started this fire.
It was about airplanes…
In the chamber ‘Indian Aircraft Bill 2024’ (Bhartiya Vayuyan Vidheyak) But discussion was going on. Everything was fine. BJP MP Ghanshyam Tiwari was presenting his views. When he finished his speech, he finally said with enthusiasm “Vande Mataram!”
That was the moment when the controversy started. According to reports, as soon as Tiwari ji said ‘Vande Mataram’, Mallikarjun Kharge stood up from his seat and raised some objection or tried to interrupt. Kharge perhaps wanted to say that it is not necessary to say this at the end of everything or it is off topic.
Amit Shah’s fierce form
Kharge’s interruption displeased Home Minister Amit Shah. He immediately stood up from his seat and surrounded the opposition in a very aggressive manner. Amit Shah said that it is very unfortunate for Kharge ji to oppose ‘Vande Mataram’ in this way.
Asking a sharp question, he said, “Sir, I am very surprised. Can anyone raise questions on saying Vande Mataram in this country? Is it a crime to say Vande Mataram? I think Kharge ji is at fault in his own mind.”
Amit Shah made it clear that no one can stop any member from expressing his patriotism.
Even the Chairman was surprised
In this whole tussle, the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha Jagdeep Dhankhar Were also surprised. He too expressed surprise at Kharge’s objection and said that he did not expect that a senior leader like the Congress President would stand against a sacred sentiment like ‘Vande Mataram’. The Chairman said, “This is in our hearts, in our blood. There should be no debate on this.”
Why is this controversy special?
Friends, this fight is not just about a slogan. BJP has always been accusing Congress of running away from symbols of nationalism in the name of appeasement politics. Amit Shah did not let this opportunity slip away and in one stroke put Congress in the dock.
At the same time, Congress says that they respect the national anthem, but BJP gives political color to everything.
