We all know that the reports which were released by OCCRP, and the opposition leaders have raised those issues in the House. The Opposition leaders trying to bring instability in the country. I want to ask what is the relationship between George Soros and Congress. We are answerable to the common man. The common man is asking us (the government) whether we stand for the security of the country in such a situation or not. I want to assure them that BJP is always there,” Nadda said.
The Chairman asked Congress leader Pramod Tiwari to speak in the House on which he said that “whatever JP Nadda said is wrong and it’s a cheap accusation. I refute all the allegations. Please start the discussion on the Adani issue, we will present all the facts.”
Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) MP Tiruchi Siva said that, Rule 238 sir, the member while speaking shall not make any personal charge against the member. The Leader of the House is a very senior leader. He is a very experienced leader.”

Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said that the BJP is scared of discussing the Adani issue.
“I am new in Parliament but till now the PM was not seen in the Parliament. Why should we not raise this issue?” Priyanka said.

Congress MP Kiran Kumar Chamala said that today the Opposition was quiet to make sure that the House runs.
“Today it was clearly visible that we, the Opposition were quiet to make sure that the House runs. But the Speaker came in with an attitude of not running the House. He was trying to provoke the Opposition… The ruling party members were trying to provoke us because they were not happy that we were sitting quietly… The NDA doesn’t want the winter session to happen,” Chamala said.
