Rahul Gandhi made grave allegations against Amit Shah: Anurag Thakur's privilege notice  

Anurag Thakur by his notices in the previous Lok Sabha for TMC MP Mohua Maitra disqualified. 

In his notice, Anurag Thakur alleged that Rahul Gandhi denied Home Minister Amit Shah a fair opportunity to reply by making serious accusations without prior intimation or documentary evidence to support his claims. 

He further claimed that this was not the first instance of Gandhi allegedly disregarding Rules 352 and 353.

BJP MP and former Minister Anurag Thakur has moved a breach of privilege notice against Rahul Gandhi, accusing the Leader of the Opposition of using unparliamentary language and making serious allegations against Home Minister Amit Shah without giving the mandatory prior notice in the Lok Sabha.  

In the notice submitted under Rules 222 and 223 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in Lok Sabha, Thakur urged the Speaker to admit the matter and, if deemed appropriate, refer it to the Committee of Privileges under Rule 227 for a detailed examination.  

Anurag Thakur on Thursday moved a breach of privilege notice against Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of violating parliamentary rules by using "unparliamentary" language and levelling serious allegations against Union Home Minister Amit Shah without giving the mandatory prior notice.  

'GRAVE ALLEGATIONS AGAINST AMIT SHAH'

The BJP MP also accused Rahul Gandhi of violating Rule 353 by making "grave and unsubstantiated allegations" against Union Home Minister Amit Shah without giving prior notice to the Speaker or the minister concerned.

Rule 353 requires members to provide adequate advance notice before making allegations of a defamatory or incriminatory nature so that the person concerned has an opportunity to investigate the matter and respond.

The BJP leader said Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju had objected to the remarks during the debate and sought that they be expunged, but Gandhi allegedly repeated the expressions despite being cautioned by the Chair.

Thakur argued that such language violated Rule 352, which prohibits offensive expressions, defamatory remarks and personal references that question the bona fides of individuals or groups unless absolutely necessary for the debate.
