‘I’ll Decide My Order Of Speech’: Shah vs Rahul Intensifies In Lok Sabha As SIR Debate Heats Up
Shah said, “There cannot be a discussion on SIR in this House. The Election Commission is responsible for it, not the government".

Union home minister Amit Shah told the Lok Sabha that the “Opposition has been spreading lies on SIR for months”, prompting Rahul Gandhi to interrupt him mid-speech and sparking heated exchanges in the House. Shah accused the Opposition of deliberately misleading the public and reiterated that all matters related to SIR fall under the Election Commission, not the government. The flashpoint came during a discussion on electoral reforms, with Shah arguing that the Opposition had been demanding a debate on an issue “the House cannot answer”.

Shah said, “There cannot be a discussion on SIR in this House. The Election Commission is responsible for it, not the government.
