The No Confidence MotionÂ
During today’s vote of no confidence, Rahul Gandhi unleashed a scathing attack on the BJP, claiming that the party had murdered Bharat Mata in Manipur. Union Minister Smriti Irani refuted him, stating that India believes in merit rather than dynasties.
“In the nation, there is no lack of trust in the Prime Minister and this government.” According to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, “the primary purpose of this no-confidence motion is to spread false information.”

Rahul Gandhi Gives the BJP a Flying Kiss in Parliament.
Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress, gave his first address in Parliament after being re-elected as an MP on Wednesday. He gave BJP lawmakers a flying kiss. While leaving the Lok Sabha grounds and as Union Minister Smriti Irani was giving her speech, the Congress leader blew a kiss, according to reports, which was not captured on camera.
After delivering his statement in support of the no-confidence vote, Rahul Gandhi was exiting the Lok Sabha when he dropped some papers. As he bent down to pick them up, some BJP MPs reportedly began laughing at him, according to the people there at the time.
They asserted that before departing, Rahul Gandhi gave a flying kiss to the BJP lawmakers.
Smriti Irani Criticises Rahul Gandhi for ‘Indecency Displayed Before Leaving’ “I object to something. The person who had the opportunity to speak before me was impolite before departing. Only a misogynistic man would be able to give a flying kiss to a parliament that had female members. Such disrespectful behaviour has never before occurred in the nation’s Parliament,” according to Smriti Irani.
Shobha Karandlaje, the Union Agriculture Minister, also criticised the Congress MP for the flying kiss and reported Rahul Gandhi for his “inappropriate” behaviour to the Lok Sabha speaker. The complaint letter was signed by several female MPs.
Priyanka Chaturvedi, a member of parliament for the Shiv Sena (UBT), refuted the accusations, stating, “I was in the visitors’ gallery and he (Rahul Gandhi) did it as a gesture of affection.”
The Tribute
As a mark of respect for the independence fighters and to remember the 1942 Quit India Movement, Lok Sabha members pause for one minute of silence.
“Today is a significant day, according to Jayant Patil,” head of the Maharashtra NCP. “There is still hope that if somebody tries to destroy democracy, all of the country’s population would band together and chant the same thing.

Point to be Noted
The Manipur violence issue has often interrupted the session, which began on July 20. The opposition asserts that there is nothing more urgent that can require the Prime Minister’s attention given the thousands of individuals who have been displaced, thousands of people who suffered injuries, and more than 170 people who have lost their lives, since the ethnic violence started in May.
