Dramatic protests in Lok Sabha prevent PM’s reply to the motion of thanks
The Lok Sabha was adjourned on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, due to protests from Opposition MPs who held up banners in front of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's seat. The Congress demanded the Prime Minister speak only after Rahul Gandhi, Leader of the Opposition, had a chance to address the House. The incident followed accusations by BJP MP Nishikant Dubey against former Prime Ministers Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, which were met with protests from the Congress. The Speaker's office later expunged many of the objectionable remarks from the records.
