BJP lashes out at Somnath Onkar Singh in New Delhi | July 16, 2008 21:07 IST Rajiv Pratap Rudy, spokesman of the party, said that it is strange that speaker who is supposed to be non partisan should make such a comment. "In the past speaker had on several occasions commented that speaker's office is a non-partisan office and hence he cannot distinguish between the parties," Chatterjee had said. The speaker then went on to say that he is not a member of the Communist Party of India-Marxist whereas the 10th schedule maintains that the member belongs to the party from which he has been elected. Rudy lashed out at Rahul Gandhi [Images] that some of the younger members of the BJP are in favour of nuclear deal. Rudy challenged Rahul Gandhi to name the BJP MP's who are for the deal. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
