anurag thakur lok sabha speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has praised the speech given by his party leader and former minister Anurag Thakur in Parliament. The Prime Minister said on his social media handle that this speech is of my young and energetic colleague Anurag Thakur. It must be heard. It is full of facts. It exposes the dirty politics of the indie alliance.
In fact, a day earlier, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had linked the lotus with violence in the House, to which Anurag Thakur retorted. He said, a leader stood up and made a sarcastic remark on the lotus, but the name of the lotus is also Rajiv, so does he consider Rajiv Gandhi bad too. By saying this, Anurag pointed towards Rahul’s father late Rajiv Gandhi. He said, “I don’t know what objection he has with the lotus. Rajiv is also a synonym of the lotus. Maybe he doesn’t know this. If he had, then I sincerely hope that he would not have made such a comment about the lotus.
What did Anurag Thakur say
Anurag said, they associated the lotus with violence. They associated Rajiv with violence. But I want to say that the seat of Maa Lakshmi is also the lotus, our national flower is also the lotus and the idol of Lord Shiva was found in the Padmasana posture in which the Indus civilization had found its idol, Lokmanya Tilak also attained Samadhi in the Padmasana posture, you say that there is violence all around the lotus. You are not insulting the lotus, you are insulting great men like Mahayogi Lord Shiva, Lord Buddha and Lokmanya Tilak.
There was a lot of uproar in the house regarding caste
Let us tell you, on the issue of caste based census, there was an uproar in the Lok Sabha due to Rahul’s question regarding his caste. The Leader of the Opposition called it an insult and said that it will not deter him from sticking to his demand for caste-wise census. In fact, Anurag Thakur said during his speech that those whose caste is not known talk about census. After this, Akhilesh Yadav also came out in support of Rahul Gandhi and expressed strong objection and said that how can anyone ask someone’s caste in the House?
