Parts of Rahul Gandhi's speech in the Lok Sabha during a debate on the President's Address on July 1 were censored.
That is, the words which were blacked out ironically comprised his comments on Hindus and other communities.
Rahul Gandhi's first speech as LoP in the Lok Sabha was marked by high decibel uproar and chaos on Monday.
As soon as the Congress MP started to speak, he waved a copy of the Constitution, and later even brandished a picture of Lord Shiva while launching a frontal attack on the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and the RSS.
The mention of Hindus by Rahul Gandhi raised a strong objection from BJP MPs and led to an unusual intervention by Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself.
PM Modi got up to interrupt the Congress MP and said, "Calling the entire Hindu community violent is a very serious matter."
Home Minister Amit Shah demanded an apology from the Congress MP for allegedly associating the BJP with violence.
The Home Minister also strongly objected to Rahul Gandhi's comparison of 'violent Hindus' with the BJP and insisted that the Congress leader apologize.
