The Lok Sabha’s Privileges Committee has summoned BSP MP Danish Ali and BJP lawmaker
Ramesh Bidhuri to record their statements on complaints that the latter made communal
remarks against the former as well as accusations that Ali made disparaging remarks against
Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Ali and Bidhuri have been asked to appear before the panel on December 7. Bidhuri was
earlier summoned on October 10 but he skipped the meeting citing political engagements in
poll-bound Rajasthan.

The Privileges Committee of the Lok Sabha has sought his appearance to record his
statement in the complaints filed by Ali and other MPs for “alleged improper conduct during
the discussion on Chandrayaan-3 mission in the House”.

BJP MPs have filed a counter complaint, accusing Ali of “inciting” Bidhuri by making
objectionable remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
