Banerjee said that by raising the issue of mimicry, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is trying to shift the focus from suspension of opposition MPs.

A political row broke out on Tuesday after Trinamool Congress leader Kalyan Banerjee derisively mimicked Dhankhar during the opposition's protest on the stairs of Parliament against the MPs' suspension and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi recording the act.
