Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on December 22 mocked MPs of Bharatiya Janata Party over Parliament Security Breach incident. He said that the two youths, carrying smoke canisters jumped into the Lok Sabha, earlier this month because they were jobless. The security breach happened on the anniversary of the 2001 Parliament terror attack. Two people--Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D--jumped into the Lok Sabha chamber from the public gallery during Zero Hour, released yellow gas from canisters, and shouted anti-establishment slogans before being overpowered by the MPs.
