Congress MP Charanjit Singh Channi has filed a Privilege Motion against PM Narendra Modi for tweeting remarks made by BJP MP Anurag Thakur in Lok Sabha, despite them being expunged from records. Thakur's comments referenced Rahul Gandhi's caste, and Channi claims Modi's actions violated parliamentary rules by publicizing the expunged statements. The motion seeks action against Modi for breaching privilege, alleging that he undermined the authority of the Lok Sabha Chair. The matter has been referred to the Lok Sabha secretary general for further action, sparking a new controversy in the parliament.
