Jat Association, a community organization, expressed outrage on social media about Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar’s mimicry, slamming “Congress elements” for the incident.
Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar, the Jat community’s pride, has been made fun of. The Jat Association stated in a post on social media platform X that “the Jat community will definitely take account of this mockery in the coming Lok Sabha elections.”
When Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Kalyan Banerjee impersonated Jagdeep Dhankhar outside the Parliament building earlier on Tuesday, he ignited a fierce controversy. Images on TV news programs featured Congressman Rahul Gandhi recording the performance with his cellphone.
The TMC MP and other opposition MPs persisted in their protests in spite of the Chair’s warning, demanding that Union Home Minister Amit Shah appear in the House to respond to inquiries regarding yesterday’s security breach.
The Rajya Sabha was adjourned later, but not before Dhankhar gave MPs his assurances that a thorough investigation had been launched into the security breach. Additionally, he disclosed that the accused had been booked under the anti-terror law and that a police case had been filed.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with senior ministers earlier on Thursday to talk about the breach. The Prime Minister skipped yesterday’s Parliament session to attend the swearing-in of the two new chief ministers of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, Mohan Yadav in Madhya Pradesh and Vishnu Deo Sai in Chhattisgarh.
Two men detonated smoke canisters in the Lok Sabha, and a man and a woman did the same outside Parliament, making six people involved in the smoke scare that occurred yesterday. A husband and wife who provided them with shelter at their Gurgaon home have also been arrested with the other four.
Sagar Sharma, D Manoranjan, Neelam Devi, and Amol Shinde are the four people inside, and Vicky Sharma is the man from Gurgaon. There is a sixth man escaping.
In addition to sections of the Indian Penal Code, the four people who used smoke canisters have been charged under the strict anti-terror law, the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. The six people in custody, including Vicky Sharma’s wife, are being questioned by the anti-terror unit of Delhi Police.
