BJP MP Ramesh Bidhuri Breaks His Silence Over Derogatory Remarks In Parliament

Bharatiya Janata Party MP Ramesh Bidhuri who was accused of using derogatory remarks inside the Parliament against Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MP Kunwar Danish Ali said he doesn't want to comment on the issue.

Bidhuri while addressing the news agency ANI said the Lok Sabha speaker OM Birla is looking into the matter and hence he doesn't want to comment on the issue.

"No comments. Speaker (Om Birla) is looking into that, I don't want to make any comment about it," Bidhuri was quoted saying to ANI.

Meanwhile, BSP MP Danish Ali sought action against BJP MP Nishikant Dubey for accusing Ali of insulting Prime Minister Narendra Modi and provoking Ramesh Bidhuri to use abusive remarks.

He also said he would consider giving up his Lok Sabha membership if action is not taken against Ramesh Bidhuri.

"When this is the condition of an elected member like me, then what will be the condition of a common man? I hope I will get justice and the Speaker will conduct an enquiry. Or else, with a heavy heart, I will think about leaving this Parliament because this can't be tolerated," the BSP leader said.

Earlier on Thursday, Bidhuri had made objectionable remarks against BSP leader Danish Ali in the Lok Sabha during a discussion on the Chandrayaan-3 mission.

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla had on Friday warned Bidhuri of "strict action" if such behaviour is repeated. The BJP on the same day served a show cause asking to explain why disciplinary action should not be initiated against him for using unparliamentary language.

Opposition parties on Saturday urged Lok Sabha Speaker for serious action against Bidhuri and demanded his suspension over his derogatory remarks against BSP MP Danish Ali in the House.
