Latest News about Bansuri Swaraj
Bansuri Swaraj attacked Rahul Gandhi over alleged recruitment scams, accusing him of remaining silent while young job seekers were harmed. She framed the issue as evidence, in her view, that Congress's rhetoric on public service contrasted with corruption allegations against the party.
Bansuri Swaraj sharply criticized Rahul Gandhi after he backed actor Kriti Sanon amid a discussion on patriarchy and women's empowerment. She accused him of misogyny and challenged the consistency of his public stance on gender issues.
During a Lok Sabha debate, Bansuri Swaraj argued that the Opposition was showing selective outrage over exam paper leaks. She said similar incidents had also occurred under the Congress-led UPA government and claimed the Modi government had introduced structural reforms to strengthen the examination system.
Bansuri Swaraj responded to a Delhi court order directing the removal of allegedly defamatory videos targeting her and restraining further circulation. She said the episode exposed what she described as the anti-woman face of AAP leader Saurabh Bhardwaj and welcomed the court's intervention.
