Anurag Thakur Files Privilege Notice Against Rahul Gandhi Over Lok Sabha Speech

Anurag Thakur, the Union Minister of Defence, has filed a privilege notice in the Lok Sabha against opposition leader Rahul Gandhi, alleging that the MP’s remarks during a recent debate violated parliamentary privilege. The notice, submitted to the Speaker’s office, seeks a formal inquiry into the statements made by Gandhi in the House. The defence minister’s action comes amid heightened tensions between the ruling BJP and the opposition Congress. While the privilege notice is a procedural step, it could lead to a parliamentary censure or a formal reprimand if the Speaker finds the allegations substantiated.
