<p>She further claimed that the BJP is rerouting the discourse around George Soros because they do not want to raise the Adani issue in parliament.</p>
<p>"It is the most ridiculous thing they could come up with. They are talking about some 1994 thing; no one has any record of it. No one knows what they are talking about. The only reason they are doing this is because they don't want to discuss the Adani issue.," she said.</p>
<p>"We try every day to have a discussion, but they don't want to have a discussion...that's why they get the House adjourned through any reason..," she added, ANI cited.</p>

<p>On the government's accusation of the Opposition obstructing the House, Congress MP Manickam Tagore said, "We have to understand that they attacked the Leader of Opposition and said defamatory words in Parliament. We are saying that the unparliamentary words used be expunged. In today's meeting also, Rahul Gandhi said that we want the Parliament to function."</p>
<p>Meanwhile, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey claimed that the Opposition was not letting him speak and his voice was being "suppressed," ANI reported.</p>
