Kharge retorts to 'muzzling' Oppn right to speak

He said that "expression of opinion" has become the norm in the Rajya Sabha.

Kharge's response came after Union minister JP Nadda's strong criticism against the Congress president for questioning the Chair.

In a long post on micro-blogging site X, Kharge alleged that the Rajya Sabha Chairman has consistently suppressed the freedom of expression of the Opposition members through "persistent heckling, unwarranted insistence on authentication, unfair remarks, and the refusal to list issues of public importance for discussion".
