Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said he had predicted that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would not come to Parliament because “he is scared” and “does not want to face the truth” about the unpublished memoir of former Indian Army chief MM Naravane.

Earlier in the day, he had said that did not think that Modi “will have the guts to come to the Lok Sabha today”, adding that he would give the prime minister a copy of Naravane’s memoir if he came to Parliament.

Gandhi’s comment that the prime minister was scared came after the Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day before Modi could address the House during the debate on the Motion of Thanks for the president’s address.

The prime minister was expected to speak in the Lower House at 5 pm, ANI reported. However, the proceedings were adjourned until 11 am on Thursday because of protests by the Opposition.
