NEW DELHI: After Asaduddin Owaisi , BJP's Chhatrapal Singh Gangwar on Tuesday sparked a row after concluding his oath taking ceremony with a "Jai Hindu Rashtra " remark.BJP's Bareily MP, who took oath after AIMIM's Owaisi concluded his oath with "Jai Hindu Rashtra, Jai Bharat.", causing further row in the house.The MP's comment evoked a strong response from Samajwadi party chief Akhilesh Yadav , who objected to the 'Jai Hindu Rashtra' comment and said that "it was against the values of the Constitution."This is the second such controversy in the day in parliament. Earlier, a controversy broke out over AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi's 'Jai Palestine' remark in the Parliament during his oath taking as MP.The five time Hyderabad MP who defeated BJP's Madhavi Latha ended his oath taking by saying, "Jai Bhim, Jai Palestine, Jai Telangana, and Allahu Akbar."Defending his remarks, Owaisi said the slogan he concluded his oath taking with did not violate any provisions in the Constitution."Everyone is saying a lot of things...I just said "Jai Bhim, Jai Meem, Jai Telangana, Jai Palestine"...How it is against, show the provision in the Constitution," he asked.Union minister G Kishan Reddy responding to the row said that Owaisi deliberately chose not to say " Bharat Mata ki Jai " and say "Jai Palestine," which the BJP minister said went against the rules of the house."The slogan 'Jai Palestine' given by AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi in Parliament today is absolutely wrong. This is against the rules of the House. He does not say 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' while living in India... People should understand that he does unconstitutional work while living in the country," he said.Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju said, while India has no enmity with Palestine, it also needs to be checked if it was "appropriate" for a MP taking oath to conclude on a note of praising another country.
