Protests At Parliament Turn Into Injury vs Injury Claims By BJP, Congress

Protest, counterprotests and brawls, and now a police case against Congress MP Rahul Gandhi - over Home Minister Amit Shah's "Ambedkar is the fashion" remark - roiled Parliament Thursday, with the BJP and Congress trading allegations of each using force to prevent rivals from entering the building.

Two BJP MPs - Pratap Sarangi and Mukesh Rajput - were "seriously injured" by Rahul Gandhi, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju claimed, before the Congress claimed an injury to one of its own; party boss Mallikarjun Kharge wrote saying his knees had been hurt in the protests.
