JP Nadda hits back at Rahul Gandhi’s allegations, challenges him to a parliamentary debate.
The action taken against students at Jantar Mantar is fast becoming a major political issue. While Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has resigned following the protests, the opposition is demanding answers from the central government regarding who authorized the police to use lathi-charges, pellet guns, tear gas shells, and electric shock batons. Rahul Gandhi has been fiercely attacking the central government over the brutality inflicted upon the students at Jantar Mantar and had been persistently demanding a discussion with the Home Minister. Now, a new political twist has emerged in the matter: Union Minister JP Nadda has challenged Rahul Gandhi, stating that the Home Minister is ready to respond to all his issues.
