Priyanka's attack on Pralhad Joshi triggers uproar in Lok Sabha; Joshi demands action

A heated exchange erupted in the Lok Sabha after Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi's choice of Pralhad Joshi as the new Education Minister. Referring to the Bilkis Banu case, Priyanka alleged that the appointment sent the wrong message to women across the country. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju objected to the remarks, calling them "character assassination" and demanding that they be expunged from the parliamentary record. Pralhad Joshi also hit back, sought an apology from Priyanka Gandhi and accused her of spreading misinformation during the debate on the Anti-Paper Leak Bill.
