They have insulted my background, constitutional position: Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar
Tuesday, 19 December 2023 Trinamool Congress MP Kalyan Banerjee triggered an unseemly row by mimicking Rajya Sabha chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar during a 'mock session' held by opposition MPs protesting the suspension of 141 MPs. The video was filmed by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and posted on social media before being removed. Banerjee mimicked Dhankhar's earlier protest against allegations of being too reverential to the Prime Minister. Dhankhar expressed his upset in the Rajya Sabha, stating that the episode insulted his background as a farmer and Jat, as well as his constitutional position.
India's Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar criticised Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Indian National Congress, for capturing a video of TMC leader Kalyan Banerjee's 'unparliamentary behaviour'. Dhankhar, who also serves as the Rajya Sabha chairman, expressed his disapproval of the opposition's protest,...

Bachchan criticised the tone used by the Chair, asserting that MPs should not be treated like "school children," especially senior members of Parliament. She expressed particular frustration over the Chairman's decision to cut off the microphone when the Leader of the Opposition attempted to speak, calling it an undemocratic act.

Deeply offended by the conduct in the House, she demanded an apology, arguing that the current discourse in Parliament had reached an unprecedented low.

A video of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Kalyan Banerjee mocking the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) poll slogan ‘abki baar 400 paar’ in the Lok Sabha went viral on Tuesday, July 2. Banerjee ridiculed the slogan, saying, “They played the game with ‘abki baar 400 paar.’ There are many games, and chu-kit-kit is one of them.” He explained that the slogan ‘400’ resonated loudly with ‘chu’ and ended with ‘kit-kit.’ He pointed out that despite their slogan, the BJP only won 240 seats and still lost the game. Chu-kit-kit, a game popular among children in West Bengal and often considered a modified version of Hopscotch, involves drawing nine squares inside a large triangle. Players must strike a stone with their foot while ensuring their other leg does not touch the ground. Banerjee's comparison of the BJP's electoral performance to this children's game was intended to highlight their shortfall in achieving their ambitious goal.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced on Sunday that the Trinamool Congress-led state government would provide shelter to people fleeing violence in Bangladesh if they seek refuge in Bengal. Speaking at a mega 'Martyrs' Day' rally in Kolkata, Banerjee emphasized the humanitarian duty to aid those in need, referencing the United Nations' resolution on refugee protection. "I cannot speak anything about Bangladesh as it is another country. The Indian government will speak about that.
