The penultimate day of the Parliament Winter Session was marred by BJP vs Congress "assault" allegation war as the MPs protested in the Parliament complex.

A massive face-off took place between the BJP and Congress as both parties levelled “scuffle" and “assault" allegations against each other, in which MPs from both sides claimed injuries.
The matter pertains to protests being carried out by the BJP MPs at the Makar Dwar of the Parliament building. The party alleged that Rahul Gandhi attempted to enter the Parliament by pushing the BJP MPs which inflicted injuries upon them, forcing them to be rushed to RML Hospital.
The Congress, in turn, also alleged that the BJP MPs tried to stop their MPs, which also included women MPs, from protesting against Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s remarks on Dr BR Ambedkar in Rajya Sabha.
What Happened When Rahul Gandhi Approached Pratap Sarangi?
As the BJP MPs were seen surrounding Sarangi, who reportedly suffered head injury in the incident, Rahul Gandhi approached the gathering of BJP MPs.
As he inched closer, visibly miffed BJP MP Nishikant Dubey called Rahul Gandhi out asking, “Are you not ashamed Rahul Gandhi? You do hooliganism. You pushed an old man".
Reacting to the allegation, the Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition replied, “He has pushed me".
The BJP MPs took an objection to it and said, “He has not pushed you".
Rahul Gandhi, without taking an update on Sarangi’s well-being, was seen walking away to the Opposition camp.
