The Sunni Ulma Board's leaders have voiced their view that a member of their community who has won the state assembly elections should be appointed as the deputy chief minister of Karnataka.
'Thank you Rahul Gandhi for inviting foreign powers for interference into India’s internal matters,' Rijiju tweeted, prompting a response from Pawan Khera who asked him as to why he was 'diverting' from the Adani issue.
The Congress today said the ruling BJP is just a tenant and not the owner of democracy and asserted that holding the government to account does not amount to criticising the nation.
The Uttar Pradesh and Assam police have opposed Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera's request in the Supreme Court to club all three police complaints filed against him over his comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud said Khera will be produced before the competent magistrate in Delhi and released on interim bail.
