Fri Dec 20 15:39:45 UTC 2024: ## Kangana Ranaut Accuses Rahul Gandhi of Assaulting BJP MPs in Parliament
**New Delhi, December 19, 2024** – Bollywood actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut has strongly condemned Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of assaulting BJP MPs within the Parliament building. The accusations stem from a heated exchange following a speech by Home Minister Amit Shah, who criticized the Congress party for invoking Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s name repeatedly. Shah accused the Congress of using Ambedkar’s legacy as a political tool.
The alleged assault, which occurred on Thursday, involved BJP MP Pratap Chandra Sarangi, who claimed Rahul Gandhi pushed him, resulting in injuries requiring stitches. Another BJP MP, Mukesh Rajput, was also injured and hospitalized. Rahul Gandhi has denied these allegations.
Taking to Instagram, Ranaut described the incident as “shameful,” highlighting the injuries sustained by the BJP MPs. She further criticized Congress’s use of Dr. Ambedkar’s name, alleging hypocrisy and linking the alleged assault to a pattern of Congress violence. Ranaut called Gandhi a “stain” on Indian politics.
The incident ignited a major row in Parliament, with Congress accusing Amit Shah of disrespecting Dr. Ambedkar. The ensuing chaos resulted in injuries to several MPs, fueling further political tension. The allegations against Rahul Gandhi have intensified the already strained relationship between the BJP and Congress.
