Bansuri Swaraj notified the LS of supposed incorrect statements made by Rahul during his speech.

BJP Member of Parliament Bansuri Swaraj took action in the Lok Sabha on Tuesday by raising concerns about the alleged errors made by Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi during his speech in the House. When asked by Speaker Om Birla about the issue, Swaraj stated that Gandhi's speech the day before contained certain "inaccurate" statements and requested the Chair to take notice of her notice.

Following Gandhi's speech on the Motion of Thanks to the President's address, Union ministers Ashwini Vaishnaw and Kiren Rijiju accused the Congress leader of making false claims on various topics, such as the Agnipath scheme and the compensation provided to locals in Ayodhya. Under Direction 115 of the Speaker, any member who wishes to bring attention to a mistake or inaccuracy in a statement made by a minister or another member can write to the Speaker before addressing the issue in the House. The member must provide evidence to support their allegation.

The Speaker then has the authority to bring the matter to the attention of the minister or member in question to verify the facts. In this case, significant portions of Gandhi's speech were removed from the records by the Chair early this morning. This action was taken in response to the concerns raised by Swaraj and the evidence she provided.

It is important for members of the House to hold each other accountable and ensure that all statements made are accurate and supported by evidence. Swaraj's notice and the subsequent removal of Gandhi's speech from the records demonstrate the responsibility of all members to uphold the integrity of the House and the information presented to the public.
