A political uproar in India's Lok Sabha has arisen over BJP MP Anurag Thakur's remarks during a discussion on the Union Budget, which were perceived as directed at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. Thakur's statement that 'whose caste is not known talks about caste census' triggered protests from the Opposition, leading to an adjournment of the House. In response, Congress MP Charanjit Singh Channi has submitted a notice for a privilege motion against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for sharing a video of Thakur's speech that allegedly included expunged remarks. However, sources indicate that Channi's motion may face challenges, as the specific comment regarding Gandhi's caste was not expunged. The BJP countered that questioning Gandhi’s caste is justified, given his past inquiries about others' backgrounds. The Speaker's decision on the privilege motion will be critical in determining the next steps in this controversy.
