"We were not allowed to speak inside the Parliament. We just asked how those intruders came inside the Parliament, why they entered the Parliament and who was behind this...instead of a BJP MP (who issued passes to the accused), if it was a Congress MP, then we would have been disgraced and insulted. They suspended 146 opposition MPs to save their one MP. We will keep fighting," he added.
