New Delhi, Aug 3: Opposition MPs, including Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, staged a protest in the Parliament complex on Monday over the alleged theft of donations at the Ram temple in Ayodhya and “police excesses” against student protesters.
The MPs gathered near Makar Dwar and raised slogans including “chanda chor, gaddi chor” and “Amit Shah sadan mein aao”.
They also placed donation boxes at the protest site to symbolise the alleged theft of offerings at the Ram temple, with some MPs putting cash into the boxes.
The INDIA bloc has vowed to corner the government in Parliament over the alleged donation theft and what it described as the use of “brutal force” against students during protests last week.
The protest drew criticism from the BJP and Hindu organisations, which accused the opposition of insulting Sanatan dharma.
