Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday questioned a reporter's political affiliation after families of Delhi police personnel injured during a student protest addressed the media. Gandhi asked whether the reporter belonged to the BJP, in response to a question about the injured officers' families seeking justice.
The families held a press conference recounting traumatic incidents involving the injured personnel and demanded justice for them. Earlier, Gandhi had called for a Supreme Court-monitored probe into alleged police actions against students during the protest.
The exchange came as opposition MPs protested in Parliament, demanding the resignation of Home Minister Amit Shah over the handling of the situation.
