Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MP Kunwar' Danish Ali, who was abused in Lok Sabha, strongly replied back at BJP's allegations of provoking MP Ramesh Bidhuri, saying he worked to save the dignity of the post of Prime Minister. "Today some BJP leaders are trying to run a narrative that I provoked Ramesh Bidhuri in the Parliament, whereas the truth is that I worked to save the dignity of the post of Prime Minister and made the Chairman aware of the highly objectionable words related to Modi Ji. Had demanded his removal from the proceedings of the House," Danish Ali wrote on X.

His remarks came after BJP MP Nishikant Dubey alleged that Danish Ali also made "highly objectionable" remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying that the BSP called PM Modi "Neech" which triggered Bidhuri and he fell into BSP MP's trap.

In a letter to Speaker Om Birla, Dubey said that the inquiry committee should look into "the extent of culpability" of MPs who "instigate other citizens" with their comments in the House. Dubey has also accused Ali of offering a running commentary during Bidhuri's speech in Lok Sabha on Thursday and making unsavoury remarks aimed at instigating him to lose his composure.

He said that the issue of "breach of privilege," which Danish Ali and other MPs have been vocal about, cannot be applied in isolation because it would result in a significant and irreversible "miscarriage of justice." Dubey said in his letter that Trinamool Congress and DMK members made comments regarding another community's faith.

Even BJP on Friday issued a show cause notice to party MP Bidhuri for using unparliamentary words against the BSP MP in Lok Sabha. Bidhuri's remark sparked outrage, with the opposition leaders calling for strict action against him.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh and many other opposition party MPs demanded Bidhuri's suspension from Parliament, saying that the language used by him "should not be used inside or outside Parliament".
