      TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee submitted a written apology on Thursday for his remarks against Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, which he had also apologized for in the House. Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla informed the House that the apology had been given both in writing and verbally.

      The issue arose when some members of the ruling alliance raised concerns about Banerjee's comments as soon as the House convened.

      Birla intervened, stating that such remarks were unfortunate and underscoring that personal attacks against any member were inappropriate, especially when directed at women. He emphasized that while disagreements were part of democracy, dignity and respect should always be upheld.

      Banerjee’s comments were made during Wednesday’s discussion on amendments to the Disaster Management Act, where he accused the central government of failing to cooperate during the COVID-19 pandemic.

      Minister of State for Home Nityanand Rai countered, praising Prime Minister Modi’s leadership, while Scindia supported him, highlighting India’s global role in aiding other countries during the crisis.

      Banerjee's remarks led to a verbal spat and an adjournment. When the House reconvened, Banerjee apologized, but Scindia rejected the apology, stating that while policy debates were welcome, personal attacks on him or on women would not be tolerated.

      Scindia emphasized the importance of maintaining self-respect and promised a response to any personal attacks.
