Parliament Showdown: Rahul Gandhi and Ravneet Bittu's War of Words

In a heated exchange at Parliament, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and former party member-turned-BJP Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu clashed. Gandhi labeled Bittu a 'traitor,' to which Bittu responded with 'enemy of the nation.' The confrontation occurred near Parliament's Makar Dwar entrance amid suspended Congress MPs' protests.

In a dramatic incident at Parliament, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and former party colleague turned BJP Union Minister, Ravneet Singh Bittu, engaged in a verbal spat right outside the Makar Dwar entrance, a key access point for MPs to the new building.

Gandhi, who was there to support suspended Congress MPs, pointedly referred to Bittu as a 'traitor' as he passed by. In response, Bittu shot back with a sharp retort, calling Gandhi an 'enemy of the nation.'

The exchange highlights rising tensions within political circles as Bittu, who switched allegiance to the BJP ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, further distanced himself from his old party allies.
