| With Congress gunning for HRD Minister Smriti Irani with a Privilege Motion, BJP today hit back in Lok Sabha by pressing for similar action against the opposition party's Jyotiraditya Scindia for "defamatory" remarks against Minister Bandaru Dattatreya.
BJP's Arjun Ram Meghwal accused Mr Scindia of "misleading" the House on February 24 by alleging that Mr Dattatreya had called Rohith Vemula, a Dalit student of Hyderabad University who committed suicide, "anti-national, casteist and extremist".
Mr Meghwal said he and many other members, including Mr Dattatreya, had given a notice of breach of privilege against Mr Scindia.
He raised the issue amid uproarious scenes in the House as AIADMK members were demanding action against former Union Minister P Chidambaram's son Karti in the Aircel-Maxis issue.
At this, Congress members too rushed to the Well, demanding that the Speaker decide on their privilege motion.
Mr Dattatreya accused Mr Scindia of "defaming him and tarnishing" his image by attributing such comments to him that he never made about Mr Vemula
