Delhi: The Parliament case enquiry of both the Bharatiya Janata Party and Congress’ complaints over Thursday’s row will be transferred to the Crime Branch as per news agency.
Amid the boiling rage over Home minister Amit Shah’s remarks on Dr BR Ambedkar in the Rajya Sabha earlier this week, a scuffle broke out in the Parliament premises, leaving two BJP MPs severely injured.
Following the incident, the saffron party filed a police complaint against Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of assault, incitement and attempt to murder.
“We have filed a complaint with Delhi Police against Rahul Gandhi for assault and incitement. We have mentioned in detail the incident that happened today outside Makar Dwar, where NDA MPs were protesting peacefully. We have given a complaint under Sections 109, 115, 117, 125, 131 and 351. Section 109 is an attempt to murder, Section 117 is voluntary causing grievous hurt,” BJP MP Anurag Thakur told reporters.
On the basis of the BJP’s complaint, an FIR was registered by the Delhi Police. The case was lodged under Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS) section 117 (voluntary causing grievous hurt), 125 (act of endangering life or personal safety of others), 131 (use of criminal force), 351 (criminal intimidation) and 3(5) (common intention) at the Parliament Street police station.
Meanwhile, Congress also filed a police complaint, alleging “misbehavior” with party chief Mallikarjun Kharge inside the Parliament premises.
