WHAT?! Rahul Gandhi Blows A Flying Kiss In Lok Sabha; Smriti Irani Gets Offended; Calls Him 'Misogynistic Man'- READ BELOW
Rahul Gandhi made his first speech in the Lok Sabha after being reinstated as the MP on Wednesday. It’s merely been a day since the Congress leader was reinstated, and he already seems to have offended Smriti Irani.

Following his speech, Gandhi did not stay back in the Lok Sabha house to listen to the reply and he had a programme scheduled at 3 pm in Rajasthan. Reminding of his famous hug and wink which took place during the last no-confidence motion against the PM Modi government in 2018, Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday made a similar gesture as he was exiting the Lok Sabha.

While Union minister Smriti Irani started her statement following Rahul Gandhi's speech on the no-confidence motion, Rahul Gandhi was believed to have blown a flying kiss on his way out, reported Hindustan Times. 


Irani took to her Twitter handle and vented out her disappointment without naming anyone. Without naming Rahul Gandhi, Smriti Irani said, "The person who spoke before me misbehaved. Only a misogynistic man can gesture a flying kiss to female parliamentarians. It shows the khandhan he comes from, and what his family and party feel about women," Smriti Irani said.

Such undignified conduct was never before seen in the Parliament of the country, Smriti Irani said.


Meanwhile, BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla has condemned Rahul Gandhi's alleged 'flying kiss' and based what this shameful behaviour was. "Last time aankh maari. This time he blows a “flying kiss” Shameful behaviour by Rahul Gandhi vis a vis Smriti Irani ji Is this not disgraceful & chichora type behaviour? Ironical he speaks about women issues," Shehzad said.

Shortly after Smriti Irani raised her objection on Wednesday, women BJP MPs also seemed to have complained to the Speaker against Rahul Gandhi's apparent flying kiss. 

Union Minister and BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje says, "By giving a flying kiss to all women members, Rahul Gandhi went away. This is a total misbehaviour of a Member. This is inappropriate and indecent behaviour of a member. Senior members are telling that this has never happened in the history of Parliament of India...What is this behaviour? What kind of a leader is he? That is why, we have complained to the Speaker to take CCTV footage of it and take action against him. This is what we have demanded," Union minister and BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje said.
