New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said the Opposition is not interested in listening to Home Minister Amit Shah's "lecture" in Parliament, and asserted that the younger generation of the country wants to know who ordered that protesting students be shot at with pellet guns.

The Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha said if Shah ordered that students be shot at, he is culpable, and if he did not, then he is incompetent, and in both the cases he should resign.

Gandhi said Shah's image "balloon" had been deflated and there was a last-ditch attempt to fill gas in it but "the balloon has burst".

"Amit Shah has no courage, he cannot come to the House," he said.

Gandhi's remarks came after Shah said the government is ready to discuss all issues in Parliament, including students' protests.

He said if the Opposition gives it in writing before 2 pm to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, discussion can start at 3 pm today till 3 pm tomorrow.
