INDIA bloc MPs stage protest in front of Gandhi statue against bulk suspension

editor December 20, 2023

NEW DELHI: On Wednesday morning, members of the Indian Parliament from bloc parties, including those who have been suspended, are protesting in front of the Gandhi statue on the Parliament grounds regarding the suspension of 141 opposition MPs and the'security breach' incident. The opposition MPs seem unflinching in their pursuit of a statement from Union Home Minister Amit Shah inside the House following the December 13 security breach incident. The protest was spearheaded by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Congress Parliamentary Leader Sonia Gandhi, with participation from other opposition MPs, including those on suspension.Karti Chidambaram, a Congress MP, stated, "This will be the norm. My way or the highway, that is. We have the majority, so we'll kick you out if you don't follow our lead. We are in charge of both Houses. The Parliament is to be transformed into a stamping house by them." Congressman Shashi Tharoor declared, "This is a stain on our democracy and a questionable record in parliamentary history." Rather than upholding democracy, they have acted. Accountability to Parliament is the paramount duty of ministers. This government doesn't want a conversation about the security breach in the house, but the home minister ought to have visited the house and addressed the issue. Their only goal is to make it "my way or the highway."

editor Leave a comment

NEW DELHI: During a protest in the Parliament grounds on Tuesday, Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar expressed his disapproval of Trinamool Congress suspended MP Kalyan Banerjee's impersonation of him, calling it "ridiculous" and "unacceptable." Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress, was seen filming the Trinamool MP with his phone while Kalyan Banerjee, along with other suspended MPs, were seen imitating the Vice President during the protest at Parliament's Makar Dwar. Following the adjournment of the House, Dhankhar noted the incident and stated, "Office of Chairman, Rajya Sabha and Office of Speaker is very different." The House reconvened at noon. Political parties will inevitably cross paths and engage in exchanges, but picture a senior party leader video graphing a member of the opposition party.imitation of the speaker and the chairman. How absurd, how deplorable, and how inappropriate." He subsequently adjourned the House until 2:00 PM. A protest was held this morning in front of the Gandhi statue on the grounds of Parliament by the suspended members of parliament from the INDIA bloc parties.

At Parliament's Makar Dwar, the suspended members also staged anti-government demonstrations. The demonstrations took place the day after 78 opposition MPs from both houses were suspended for the duration of the current "Winter Session" for causing a commotion and interfering with both House sessions in order to press their demand that Amit Shah make a statement regarding the incident involving the breach of Parliament security. The 13 members who had been removed earlier and the suspensions made up the largest group of members ever removed from the Indian Parliament. Following a fracas over the Opposition's demand for a statement from Union Minister Amit Shah regarding the incident involving the breach of Parliament security, 78 MPs—33 from the Lok Sabha and 45 from the Rajya Sabha—were suspended on Monday. This brings the total number of lawmakers suspended for the duration of the current Winter Session to 92.Congress leader Jairam Ramesh, KC Venugopal, and Randeep Singh Surjewala were among the 34 opposition Rajya Sabha MPs who were suspended for the remainder of the "Winter Session."

Opposition’s Goal Is To Throw Out Our Govt, Govt’s Goal Is India’s Bright Future: Modi

editor Leave a comment

NEW DELHI, Dec 19: The opposition parties' protests in Parliament have angered Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who said on Tuesday that their actions will guarantee that their numbers decline further in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections while the BJP gains ground. In his remarks to the BJP Parliamentary Party, Modi also voiced alarm over "attempts" to downplay the security breach in Parliament, calling them just as concerning as the actual incident, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi told reporters. Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress party, recently attributed the Parliament breach on December 13—which occurred when two protestors leaped into the lower house chamber and opened smoke cans—to rising unemployment and prices.According to the prime minister, everyone who upholds democracy and democratic principles ought to have denounced the events as a whole. As per BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad, "How can a party believing in democratic values overtly or covertly justify it?" he stated. The prime minister asked BJP members to exercise restraint and adhere to democratic norms, stating that opposition parties are shaken by their defeat in the most recent assembly elections and are disrupting Parliament in frustration.While the bloc parties in India are gathering on Tuesday to plan how to take on the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Modi stated that while their objective is to overthrow his government, his government's objective is to secure a prosperous future for the nation. After the meeting, he suggested that BJP MPs travel to border villages.

ED issues fresh summons to Kejriwal in Delhi liquor policy case

editor Leave a comment

NEW DELHI: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate to appear for questioning on December 21, marking a significant development in the Delhi liquor policy case. This is the AAP supremo's second summons in relation to the case. The investigation team had previously called the chief minister of Delhi on November 2. He had, however, ignored the summons, citing obligations to governance and elections. Kejriwal responded to the previous ED summons by stating that it seemed to be "a fishing and roving inquiry" and did not specify in what capacity he is being called.The ED summons was deemed "illegal and politically motivated" by his Aam Aadmi Party, which also demanded that it be revoked right away. The AAP claimed that the BJP, which controls the federal government, gave the order for Kejriwal to receive an ED summons. This would be Kejriwal's second appearance before the ED, where he would be questioned by a central probe agency. In relation to the now-canceled Delhi excise policy, Kejriwal was questioned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for approximately nine hours on April 16. The first prominent AAP figure to be detained by the CBI was Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia. The charges stemmed from alleged irregularities in the formulation and execution of the liquor policy, which was later rescinded due to accusations of collusion by the opposition.

Following the suspension of 33 Lok Sabha members for "misconduct" for the duration of the monsoon session, the Rajya Sabha took new action just hours later. The Chairman asked the suspended members to vacate the precincts after the House adopted the motion for suspension. The House was then adjourned for the day by him. Piyush Goyal, the leader of the Rajya Sabha, made the motion to suspend the MPs. The Rajya Sabha convened at 4.30 pm after several adjournments during the morning. The disruption of proceedings was caused by the MPs' trooping into the House well and their persistent sloganeering. Shortly after, the suspension was declared.
