Headlines: Rahul Gandhi Not Allowed To Raise Question on Ladakh Stand-off, Walks Out of Defence Panel Meet

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and other parliamentarians of his party, including Rajeev Satav and Revanth Reddy, on Wednesday walked out of a meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on Defence, alleging that the panel’s time was being wasted in discussing armed forces’ uniform instead of the crucial issue of national security, sources said.
The former Congress president was barred from speaking at the meeting by panel chairman Jual Oram (BJP) when he sought to raise the issues of Chinese aggression and better equipping the soldiers at the border in Ladakh, they said.
Oram later told News18 that Gandhi was asking questions not listed in the agenda for the day. “If Rahul Gandhi or any other member of the committee asks a question or raises an issue which is not listed in the agenda for the day, then as a chairman I have a right to ask him or her to refrain from so. That is exactly what happened in the meeting today,” Oram said
