Congress's Mallikarjun Kharge has written to the Lok Sabha Speaker and Rajya Sabha chairman, requesting that the statues of national icons -- Mahatma Gandhi, Shivaji, BR Ambedkar and others -- be returned to their original spots. The statues have been relocated to Prerna Sthal, a dedicated area at the back of the Parliament Complex. The decision has been strongly criticised by Opposition parties, who are demanding a rollback.
