BJP MP from Nagaland, Phangnon Konyak has accused Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Parliament, Rahul Gandhi of misbehaving with her by standing too close and causing discomfort during simultaneous protests by BJP and Congress outside Parliament earlier in the today.

The MP has filed a complaint with Rajya Sabha Chairman against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

In her complaint letter, MP Konyak wrote, “I was standing just below the staircase of Makar Dwaar with a placard in my hand. The Security Personnel had cordoned and created a passage to the entrance right for the moment of Hon’ble MP’s of other parties. Suddenly, the Leader of the Opposition, Shri Rahul Gandhi Ji along-with other party members came in front of me despite there being a passage created for them.”
“He misbehaved with me in a loud voice and his physical proximity to me was so close that I, being a lady member, felt extremely uncomfortable,” the MP said.

“It is not that I cannot defend myself, but still, it is very unbecoming, so I did not retaliate. However, his actions today were really bad, and I feel disheartened. No lady member, especially someone like me, an ST lady member, should be made to feel this way,” she said.

Meanwhile, BJP MP Pratap Chandra Sarangi has claimed that Rahul Gandhi pushed an MP, who eventually fell on him, injuring him.
