Union home minister Amit Shah tore into Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, over his 'no chance to speak' claims on Wednesday during the debate on the no-confidence motion against Speaker Om Birla.
Shah said that when the Congress leader gets a chance to speak, he is "seen in Germany, in England".
The home minister also lambasted the Opposition for questioning the integrity of the Lok Sabha Speaker, stating that such a move is equal to questioning the foundation of India's democracy.
Shah questioned why Rahul Gandhi continues to complain despite being given chances to speak, and pointed out that Congress MPs had the opportunity to speak for 157 hours and 55 minutes in the 18th Lok Sabha.
Amit Shah also raked up Gandhi's previous remarks in the Lok Sabha, where he challenged the PM to hold a debate on his press conference.
The home minister read out the attendance record of the LoP, saying Rahul Gandhi's attendance in the 17th Lok Sabha was 51 per cent, whereas the national average was 66 per cent.
