24 Feb 2016 Evaluate

Challenging Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi for a debate on the JNU row in the Parliament, Union Communications and IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad asked the former to respond to the government's queries and put forth his views before the nation. He said ‘we would like Rahul Gandhi to participate in the debate, respond to our queries. Rahul Gandhi.please reply what is your and your party's stand on the sloganeering in JNU’.

Prasad further stated that the nation wants a reply from him, adding that it would happen only when he participates in the parliamentary debate. He further added that ‘Mr. Rahul Gandhi, we would like to know from you that a great, courageous brave army officer captain Pawan, who also hailed from JNU died fighting for the country. You associate with the legacy of Pawan in the JNU or you dissuade yourself with the legacy of those who are raising a slogan- 'Bharat ki barbaadi tak jung chalegi'? That's the issue. Mr. Gandhi.come let's have a debate’.

Earlier, the Congress vice-president said that the Centre won't let him speak in the Parliament because they are scared of his remarks. Meanwhile, the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha witnessed adjournments on the first working day with the opposition parties lashing out at the government for the situation arising out of the incidents in JNU and Hyderabad University.
