The BJP leaders accusing the Leader of Opposition of "arrogance," "violating parliamentary rules," and a "shameful attitude" towards fellow MPs

BJP MP Anurag Thakur condemned Rahul Gandhi's actions, saying, "The arrogance of Rahul Gandhi that was seen yesterday and his attitude towards his fellow MPs is very unfortunate. The way he created a ruckus by violating all the rules and instead of going on the designated path, he deliberately took his supporters along and created a ruckus"

BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj also slammed Gandhi for ignoring repeated warnings from security forces

BJP MP Aparajita Sarangi expressed concern over the injuries sustained by two senior MPs. She said, "Something which happened in Parliament yesterday should not have happened. We strongly condemn it. There are two issues which I would like to highlight: two very senior MPs have been hospitalized and are still under doctors' observation. This is extremely unfortunate. We are all supposed to hold the decorum and dignity of Parliament."

Further BJP MP Jagdambika Pal accused Congress MPs of "hooliganism" and alleged that Gandhi pushed BJP MPs Pratap Sarangi and Mukesh Rajput

The BJP has demanded an apology from Gandhi, raising concerns over the incident's impact on parliamentary decorum

"When he (Rahul Gandhi) was taken to the injured, forget about asking about their well-being, forget about apologising, arrogance was visible on his face. His (Rahul Gandhi's) statement was that pushing and shoving keeps happening. This makes it clear that his thinking is that you can do anything to anyone, and nothing is going to happen to us," Anurag Thakur said
