Pegasus Scandal: Rahul Gandhi says the opposition parties are united

“Sitting with the entire opposition is extremely humbling. Amazing experience, wisdom and insight in everyone present. #United,” the Wayanad MP wrote on his Twitter handle.



NEW DELHI — Congress leader and Member of Parliament, Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday stated that the opposition parties were united against the ruling party, pointing to the issues like Pegasus snooping row and Assam-Mizoram border clashes.

It would not be out of place to recall that the opposition parties chanted slogans over Pegasus row in the Rajya Sabha, forcing two adjournments - first at 12 PM and the second at 2 PM on Wednesday.



The House was then adjourned as the opposition stirred the pot in the spying controversy.



Earlier, 14 opposition parties met ahead of the start of House proceedings to establish a unified strategy to surround the government on issues such as the Pegasus spying scandal and the Assam-Mizoram dispute.



The Congress, DMK, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), Shiv Sena, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), Samajwadi Party, CPI-M, CPI, National Conference (NC), AAP, IUML, RSP, KCM, and the VCK were among the parties that attended the meeting.

These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal...

" India is an over populous country. " This statement is hardly news to anyone, but very few of us know that the average age of an Indian is just 29 years old. Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence.

The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr...
