After accusing the government of not letting him speak in Parliament on demonetisation, Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi today said he wanted to speak on a lot of issues and it was to be seen if the government allows it.
"I have come here to speak. Let's see if the government allows me to speak," Gandhi told reporters outside Parliament.
Gandhi had on Friday last said his party wants debate on demonetisation so that the truth can come to the fore, but the government is running away from it.
The Congress leader had said that when he gets a chance to speak about demonetisation in the House, "the Prime Minister will not be able to even sit there... Demonetisation is the biggest scam in the history of India... I want to speak in Lok Sabha. I will tell everything there."
The Winter Session of Parliament resumed today after a four-day hiatus. It has seen little transaction of any substantial business due to ruckus over demonetisation and other issues.
