What you are seeing, is the test of Indian democracy,” said Gandhi while a media interaction post the Parliament proceedings on March 16.
“In the morning, I went to Parliament and spoke with the Speaker (Lok Sabha) that I want to speak. Four ministers of the govt had put allegations against me so I have a right to keep my views in the house. I’m hopeful that I will be allowed to Speak in Parliament tomorrow,” said Rahul Gandhi.
