Budget Session: Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday slammed the opposition MPs for creating a ruckus in the Lok Sabha during the ongoing budget session of the parliament. While sharing two visuals on X (formerly Twitter), Rijiju stated that the behaviour of Congress MPs was "most degrading". A huge row erupted after Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not address the lower house due to the ruckus created by the women MPs of Congress.
While sharing the visuals, Rijiju asserted that the BJP MPs were instructed to maintain the dignity of the house. "Who can justify such behaviors from the Honb'le MPs? The direction from our leadership was very clear that we must maintain the dignity of the house, and no BJP MP should get into physical confrontation with the rude opposition MPs," Rijiju stated.
"Congress Party is proud of the most degrading behavior by their MPs!! If we had not stopped all BJP MPs and allowed the Women MPs to confront Cong. MPs, it would have led to very ugly scene. We have very high consideration, to protect the dignity and sanctity of the Parliament," he added.

Apart from this, he also supported the complaint filed by the BJP women MPs to the Lok Sabha speaker against the Congress MPs for crossing the line. “The BJP MPs, especially the women MPs, have lodged a strong complaint to the Lok Sabha speaker against the behaviour of the Congress MPs. The Congress MPs crossed over to the Treasury side," Rijiju was quoted as saying by PTI.
"They crossed the bench where the Prime Minister sits, and they went beyond towards the Treasury side, and they almost laid the siege of the entire area,” he added. However, the Congress alleged that the prime minister skipped his speech to avoid facing the truth.
