New Delhi [India], December 9 (ANI): Congress MP Manickam Tagore alleged that the Centre is closing down the voices of the opposition leaders during the ongoing winter session of parliament marred by repeated disruptions on several issues.
The Congress MP further alleged that the Centre doesnot want to have debate on any issue while the oppostion want the House to function.
“It is unfortunate that for the third straight day, the house has been adjourned. It happened in the zero hour, it happened at noon, and then at 2 pm again. The government is not ready to run the Parliament. They want it to be closed. They want to close the voices of the opposition leaders, therefore they don’t want any kind of discussion… We want the house to function and a real debate should happen…,” he told ANI.
The Congress MP also further said, “The Parliament should have functioned in the last 11 days, but PM Modi has come to the Parliament for only one day which is very unfortunate.”
Earlier in the day, Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said, “The House is adjourning only because of the govt. They don’t want to run the House at all. We raised the issue and they adjourned the House within 10 seconds.”
“The government doesn’t want to hear the name of Adani in the parliament. Just before the House commenced today, the parliamentary affairs minister made a very provocative and defamatory statement. That is a new thing,” he added.
Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar, earlier while speaking during the ongoing Winter session of Parliament, expressed concern over the disruption of House proceedings, stating that the current session began as the country entered the 25th year of adopting the Indian Constitution.
He called on all members of Parliament to respect the sanctity of the House and avoid actions that hinder its functioning and emphasized that no one should paralyze the House, underlining the importance of parliamentary procedures and the need for constructive debate.
“We started our current session by entering into the fourth quarter of a century of adoption of the Indian constitution. The entire week the House could not function. No one should paralyse the House,” said Rajya Sabha Chairman Dhankhar.
The first session of the winter Parliament commenced on November 25, with both Houses getting adjourned fairly early due to disruptions. The winter session will go on till December 20. (ANI)
