Piyush Goyal, BJP Rajya Sabha MP and Union minister, slammed senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for casting aspersions on the Indian Armed Forces. Goyal said the opposition, especially the Congress, does not trust the Army. Goyal's comments came after opposition parties disrupted the winter session of Parliament again on Monday.
Piyush Goyal further said the opposition was not adhering to parliamentary code of conduct.
‘No trust in the Indian Army’
Piyush Goyal, who is the leader of the house in Rajya Sabha, said the opposition continues to show disbelief inspite of the statement made by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh in Parliament on the India-China clash in Tawang on December 9.
“Defence Minister Rajnath Singh ji has already made a detailed statement on the floor of the house after which we would have expected the opposition, particularly the Congress party, to respect our Army, to respect our Jawans at the border, who are holding our head high with their valour and their commitment towards the nation. Unfortunately the Congress party’s leader Shri Rahul Gandhi continues to cast aspersions on the Army and it shows a complete lack of trust.”
