New Delhi, August 12, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
BJP president Nitin Nabin on Wednesday accused the Opposition of deliberately disrupting Parliament, alleging that its continued protests reflected an “anarchic mindset” and were preventing debate on important issues.
In a post on X, Nabin shared a video of Union Home Minister Amit Shah speaking to reporters outside Parliament and said the Opposition was “running away from discussion” despite repeated attempts by the Narendra Modi government to facilitate debate.
“The continuous disruption by the opposition in Parliament exposes their anarchist mindset,” Nabin said, adding that the public could now see who was avoiding discussions.
His remarks came amid a continuing standoff between the government and Opposition over the alleged police action against students during the July 20 Parliament march related to the NEET paper leak issue.
Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi earlier rejected the government’s offer for a discussion and reiterated his demand that Shah take responsibility for the alleged firing on protesting students.
The Opposition has repeatedly sought Shah’s presence in the House and a statement on the police action. The issue has contributed to repeated disruptions during the Monsoon Session.
Shah, however, said he was ready to respond to all questions and accused the Opposition of preventing Parliament from functioning. He said he had been regularly attending the session and was present in his chamber, but could not participate in proceedings because of the disruptions.
The Home Minister also proposed a specific window for the discussion, saying the government was prepared to hold it from 3 p.m. on Wednesday until 3 p.m. on Thursday if the Opposition submitted a letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla by 2 p.m.
“I will sit in the House; I will listen to everyone and respond to every point. The government has nothing to hide,” Shah said.
He also said the government was willing to discuss why the Opposition had opposed the debate and urged members to allow Parliament to function.
