Mallikarjun Kharge, the Rajya Sabha leader, defended party colleague Lok Sabha whip Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Friday, alleging that he just stated “Nirav Modi and Nirav means “shaant” (quiet in Hindi).”
“He only said Nirav Modi. Nirav means ’shaant’ (quiet), silent and for that he was suspended?” Kharge told Rajya Sabha Chairman Dhankhar.
