The war of words took place when Rahul Gandhi interjected Shah while he was addressing the Lok Sabha during a discussion on the electoral reforms. “The Leader of Opposition (LoP) asked for answers to his questions. ‘You can’t run the parliament with your obstinacy. I will decide the order of my speech. The parliament won’t function like this. He should be patient. I will answer every point,” Shah responded to Gandhi’s remarks.
