“He Has Insulted Whole Nation, Thinking Of Leaving Parliament”: Danish Ali Seeks Action Against BJP Leader Ramesh Bidhuri’s Remark

New Delhi [India]: As BJP member Ramesh Bidhuri’s objectionable remarks against Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MP Danish Ali has triggered anger among the Opposition parties, the BSP leader has demanded a strict action against Bidhuri while  giving an ultimatum of leaving the Parliament if the Speaker will not conduct an enquiry into the matter.

Speaking to the reporters, the BSP leader said that Bidhuri, a BJP MP from South Delhi, has insulted the whole nation with his remark targeting a particular community.

Further, in a jibe at the BJP, Danish Ali said that this is a matter of watching whether the BJP will take any action against Ramesh Bidhuri or if he will be promoted and included in the central cabinet of ministers.

“When this is the condition of an elected member like me then what will be the condition of a normal person. I hope, I will get justice, Speaker will conduct an enquiry or else with a heavy heart, I’m also thinking of leaving this Parliament because this can’t be tolerated.

Is this why we are elected, is this why our ancestors sacrificed their lives for freedom… they (BJP) just did not insult me and my followers but they insulted the whole nation… now let’s see if BJP is taking any action against Ramesh Bidhuri or if he will be promoted and included in the central cabinet of ministers…maybe it has become a competition among BJP leaders to make such statements not just outside but even inside the Parliament,” Ali said.

Danish Ali further said that it was the first time when an inappropriate language was used for an elected MP in the House.

“I sent my letter to the office of Lok Sabha Speaker and I am confident that Lok Sabha Speaker will take cognizance of the incident and will take appropriate action. I have given notice. All things are on record and it’s happening for the first that this type of language has been used for an elected MP…” he said.

The incident took place during the debate on the Chandrayaan 3 mission in the Lower House of the Parliament.

Speaking about the incident, Samajwadi Party MP Dr ST Hasan said that the Muslims of the country has ‘disheartened’ by the remarks made by Bidhuri.

” …Usually this is the kind of language that is used by people who’re silly and of low level. There is a decorum of the Parliament, that was destroyed and along with that, the Speaker has not taken any action till now. For small reasons, people get suspended (in the Parliament) but he (Ramesh Bidhuri) is not yet suspended.

We, the Muslims of this country are disheartened after hearing all these things, we never thought such a day would come in this country when inside the Parliament, Muslims will be insulted openly…,” Hasan said.
