Amid Mimicry Row, Jagdeep Dhankhar's "Sanskaar" Swipe At Rahul Gandhi

Jagdeep Dhankhar made the remarks amid sloganeering by the BJP MPs, who stood in Rajya Sabha for an hour this morning as a show of support to the Vice-President.

A day after a Trinamool MP's mimicry raised a political storm, Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar said he doesn't care if he is insulted as an individual, but won't tolerate the insult of Vice-President's office. Without naming Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, he questioned the sanskaar (values) of those who filmed and amplified Trinamool Congress Kalyan Banerjee's mimicry on Parliament premises yesterday. "...I don't care about how much you insult Jagdeep Dhankhar. But I can't tolerate (insult of) Vice President of India, farmers community, my community... I will not tolerate that I could not protect the dignity of my post, it is my duty to protect the dignity of this House..,"… pic.twitter.com/vLxUAtw6VG

Addressing Congress MP Digvijaya Singh in Rajya Sabha, Mr Dhankhar questioned the "silence" of top Congress leaders on the episode. "You say your party is 138 years old. Your silence is ringing in my ears. (Congress chief Mallikarjun) Kharge ji's silence in ringing in my ears. Everyone knows what is happening," he said.

"A person derives fun (from the mimicry) by videographing it, amplifies it. These are the manners? The level is so low now?" he added.
