Chaos in Parliament over Congress-George Soros link claims, BJP MP poses questions

Chaos prevailed in both houses of Parliament on Thursday as the BJP stepped up its attack at the Congress party, accusing it of having links with US billionaire George Soros. The treasury and opposition benches are already engaged in bitter face-off over moving the no-trust motion against Rajya Sabha chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar.

BJP MP Nishikant Dubey raised the issue of alleged link between former Congress president Sonia Gandhi and US billionaire George Soros. He also hurled many questions at the Congress party and accused the Gandhis of conniving with the anti-India forces.

“Soros came to India in 2004 and 2009. He took a 5% stake in BSE. He earned money from the Indian share market from 2010 to 2014. He met the Gandhi family. What is the relationship between Soros and the Gandhi family?” he asked.

Dubey, addressing the Lok Sabha, said that the Opposition disrupted house proceedings whenever he attempted to pose ten questions concerning the alleged ties between Gandhi family and Soros.

“For the last four days, Zero Hour has been wasted. Every time my name is mentioned, the Opposition creates a ruckus,” Dubey said.

Raising his first question, Dubey asked, “What is the relationship between the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation and FDL-AP, which recognises Kashmir as a separate state and is funded by George Soros? What is the connection between Sonia Gandhi and Soros?”
