'Indecent Comments': Digvijaya Singh's Brother Criticises Rahul Gandhi's 'Hindu' Remarks In Parliament
Gandhi had launched a no-holds-barred attack on the BJP in the Lok Sabha on Monday

The younger brother of senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh has criticised Rahul Gandhi for what he described as “indecent” comments made by the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha about the Hindu community.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launched a no-holds-barred attack on the BJP in the Lok Sabha on Monday, accusing the leaders of the ruling party of dividing people into communal lines, drawing massive protests from the treasury benches.

Lakshman Singh, the brother of former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Digvijaya Singh, has a history of publicly criticising his own party. On multiple occasions, he has diverged from the party’s official stance and openly condemned its actions. One notable incident includes his rebuke of Sam Pitroda, Chairman of the Indian Overseas Congress, for making racist remarks against Indians.

In his latest post on ‘X’, Lakshman said, “The comments made on ‘Hindus’ in the Parliament are indecent and unnecessary. It would be appropriate to raise only and only issues related to the people and the country.” Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday asked NDA MPs to follow parliamentary rules and conduct and learn from senior members about the best practices, a day after the ruling alliance accused Rahul Gandhi of making a “most irresponsible” speech.

Addressing a meeting of NDA MPs, Modi said the opposition is upset as for the first time a non-Congress leader, that too a “chai-wala”, has become prime minister for a third straight term. Highlighting his humble origins, he took an apparent jibe at the Nehru-Gandhi family saying that its members used to be prime minister and gave little recognition to those from outside their fold, the sources said.

Briefing reporters, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said Modi asked MPs to study parliamentary issues, attend Parliament regularly and raise the matters related to their constituency effectively. Asked if Modi referred to Gandhi’s Monday speech in Lok Sabha, Rijiju said he made no such mention but added that when the country’s prime minister speaks, the message is for everyone.
