In their letter written to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, the women BJP MPs have written: “I would like to draw your attention towards the incident in the House by Mr Rahul Gandhi, MP from Wayanad, Kerala.”

They said: “The said member has behaved in an indecent manner and making inappropriate gesture towards Smriti Zubin Irani, Union Minister and Member of this House while she was addressing the House.

In their letter, they added: “We demand stringent action against such action by the Member, which has not only insulted the dignity of women members in the House, it has also brought disrepute and lowered the dignity of this august House.”
