During a fiery speech in the Lok Sabha on Operation Sindoor, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi expressed his frustration by banging the table while questioning the government's silence over US President Donald Trump inviting Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir for lunch. The act drew a light rebuke from Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, who reminded the Congress leader to be mindful of House property.
"Respected member, this is House's property, please don't break it," Birla said after witnessing Rahul Gandhi’s animated reaction. The Congress MP promptly responded, "Sorry sir, it was a mistake?"
The outburst came as Rahul Gandhi criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not objecting to Trump's gesture. He described Munir as the key figure behind the April 22 Pahalgam attack.
"The man behind Pahalgam is a Pakistani general called Asim Munir (chief of Army staff). That man is having lunch with the US President. He is sitting there. Our PM cannot go there. Mr Trump is breaking all protocol. And he is inviting the man who has done terrorism with India to have lunch with him. PM Modi hasn't said anything. He didn't say 'how dare Mr Trump invite Munir to his office'," Rahul said, while forcefully banging the table.
