'Amit Shah has to go': Rahul Gandhi targets HM for violence on students during CJP protest

Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday stepped up his attack on Union Home Minister Amit Shah, alleging that he was responsible for the alleged police action against students protesting the NEET paper leak issue on July 20.

He also urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to sack Shah and order a Supreme Court-monitored probe into the alleged crackdown.

Addressing a press conference after the Lok Sabha proceedings, Gandhi also alleged that he was not allowed to speak in the House because of his remarks against the Union home minister.
