Controversy

During a discussion in parliament on 21 September 2023, Bidhuri abused Bahujan Samaj Party MP Kunwar Danish Ali calling him a terrorist. These comments were condemned by parliamentarians and political leaders across party lines.[9][10] BJP issued a show cause notice to him for his remarks. However, no actions were taken against him by the speaker Om Birla.[11] Bidhuri later on expressed regret for his objectionable remarks.[12] In 2015, five women Oppn MPs had, in a complaint to then Speaker Sumitra Mahajan, accused South Delhi BJP MP Bidhuri of 'abusive behaviour' and using abusive and derogatory' language in the House.
