A brand new BJP vs Congress flashpoint erupted today in Parliament after Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra described a member of the Centre's newly constituted education reform panel as a "cow urine expert", prompting strong objections from BJP MPs, including Anurag Thakur. The controversy unfolded during the debate on The Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, as Priyanka Gandhi questioned the government's approach to overhauling India's examination system following the Testing Agency (NTA) crisis.
