Substantive motion against Rahul Gandhi: Nishikant Dubey demands expulsion, lifetime election ban

The Lok Sabha was adjourned after BJP MP Nishikant Dubey accused Rahul Gandhi of being “hand-in-glove with anti-national forces.” Dubey has submitted a substantive motion seeking Gandhi’s expulsion and a lifetime election ban, objecting to his remarks referencing former Army Chief Gen MM Naravane’s unpublished memoir. While the Centre clarified it will not move a privilege motion, portions of Gandhi’s speech may be expunged.
