Why did Rahul Gandhi not speak in Parliament
The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha is Rahul Gandhi but Rahul Gandhi has not given any speech on behalf of the opposition on the Waqf Bill. And this has also happened when Rahul Gandhi was saying last week that the government does not let him speak in Parliament.
According to the information, in the meeting of the parliamentary party, Rahul Gandhi had suggested that the same leaders should give a speech on the Waqf bill which was part of the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) made on this issue and that is why Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi gave the first speech from the opposition.
