Sambit Patra Accuses Rahul Gandhi of Using Children in Protests
A big leader named Sambit Patra said another leader, Rahul Gandhi, did something not nice.
Rahul Gandhi took children to a protest in Delhi called 'Sansad Chalo' on July 20.
Sambit Patra said using children to make a political point is wrong.
He said children belong to everyone, no matter what religion they follow.
He also said no one fired guns during that protest.
Patra said Rahul Gandhi should also care about students in Jharkhand who are upset.
A clever student named Pratiksha is very sad because exams had problems and leaked papers.
Patra said Rahul Gandhi ignores those students and their struggles.
Patra also said the Home Minister does come to Parliament, but Congress members make too much noise.
He believes the country grows when everyone works together.
BJP MP Sambit Patra criticized LoP Rahul Gandhi for involving children in the 'Sansad Chalo' protest in Delhi on July 20.
Patra categorically stated that no firing took place during the protest and called it inappropriate to create political confusion through children.
He accused Gandhi of a selective approach, highlighting the Delhi protest while ignoring suffering students in Jharkhand, where Congress is in power.
Patra cited a report of Ranchi gold medallist Pratiksha battling depression and panic attacks over paper leaks and irregularities in JPSC and JSSC exams.
He rejected allegations about the absence of the Union Home Minister, blaming Congress MPs for disrupting Parliament with uproar and placards.
