Congress members today staged a walkout from the Lok Sabha on the issue of attacks on dalits. Party leader Mallikarjun Kharge referred to the Prime Minister’s speech in Telangana Sunday expressing sympathy for dalits and charged Mr Modi of not being serious enough in combating attacks on them.
The Congress members surged in the well despite the Speaker’s assurance that she would let them have their say after the listed business. But they did not relent and walked away.
