00:00I am 49 years old. I will fight you for the next 30 years inside parliament, outside parliament, in the gutter, on the streets.
00:08If I am someone like Aadhi, Mahan, Hingstrom, Manuvikata, I will break your bones. We will see the end of you.
00:30This Lok Sabha has also seen the weaponization of a parliamentary committee.
00:39Ironically, the ethics committee, which was set up to serve as a moral compass for members.
00:45Instead, it has been abused egregiously today to do exactly what it was never meant to do,
00:52which is to bulldoze the opposition and become another weapon to thokdo us into submission.
00:58This committee and this report has broken every rule in the book.
01:03In essence, you are finding me guilty of breaching a code of ethics that does not exist.
01:09The committee is punishing me for engaging in a practice that is routine, accepted and encouraged in the house.
01:16The findings are based solely on the written testimonies of two private citizens,
01:22whose versions contradict each other in material terms, none of whom I was allowed to cross-examine.
01:28One of the two private citizens is my estranged partner who, with malified intention, masqueraded as a common citizen in front of the committee.
01:37The two testimonies have been used to hang me there at polar opposites to each other.
01:43The complainant says I accepted cash and consideration from a businessman to ask questions in furtherance of his commercial interests.
01:51But the businessman's suomoto affidavit says I pressurized him into uploading questions to further my agenda.
01:59The two are at polar opposites. The ethics committee, without getting to the root of this, has decided to hang me.
02:06It refused to summon the businessman to orally testify.
02:10And there is no evidence of any cash, of any gifts, anywhere.
02:15What is important is that if this Modi government thought that by shutting me up, they are going to do away with the Adani issue,
02:23let me tell you this, that this kangaroo court has only shown to all of India that the haste and the abuse of due process you have used
02:32demonstrates how important Mr. Adani is to you and to what length you will go to harass a single woman MP into shutting her into submission.
02:41Tomorrow the CBI will be sent to my house. I am sure they will harass me for the next six months.
02:47But I would like to ask, what about the 13,000 crore cold scam of Mr. Adani that the CBI and the ED have not found a place to look at?
02:56You tell me I have compromised national security with a login portal?
03:00Ramesh Puderi stood up and told Dhanesh Ali, no action has been taken.
03:06Nothing has been taken. You hate minorities. You hate women.
03:11You detest Nari Shakti. You cannot handle power and authority.
03:15I am 49 years old. I will fight you for the next 30 years inside Parliament, outside Parliament, in the gutter, on the streets.
03:23If I am someone like Adi, Mahan, Hingstrom, Manubhikata, I will break their bones.
03:29We will see the end of you. Do not wonder. Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maratha, Dravid, Utkala, Bongo.
03:36You don't have the Punjab. Sindh is not ours. Dravid is not yours. Utkala is not yours. Bongo is not yours.
03:43Where do you think you are going to rule us? Where do you think you get this brute majority from?
03:48The Ethics Committee has no power to expel. You have assumed the powers of a quasi-judicial authority
03:54and imposed a penalty on me that you have no power to do.
03:57You have disregarded due process, proportionality and abused every tenet.
04:01This is the beginning of your end.
04:04Jab naash manush par chhata hai, toh pehle Vivek mar jata hai.
