Now, Congress has no trust in Modi govt
After the Telugu Desam Party and YSR Congress, the Congress on Friday submitted a notice for no-confidence motion against the Modi government in the Lok Sabha. In a letter to the Secretary-General of the lower House, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge requested to include the motion in the revised list of business on Monday.
New Delhi: After the Telugu Desam Party and YSR Congress, the Congress on Friday submitted a notice for no-confidence motion against the Modi government in the Lok Sabha. In a letter to the Secretary-General of the lower House, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge requested to include the motion in the revised list of business on Monday.
This comes after both Houses were adjourned for the day as the stalemate between the Opposition and the government continued for the third week of the second leg of the budget session with ruckus prevailing unabated.
Earlier on Thursday, MPs of YSR Congress and TDP filed fresh notices for the motion. A group of TDP MPs met Speaker Sumitra Mahajan and demanded that she take up their no-confidence motion immediately and start the debate in the House. However, the motion was not taken up again on Friday following continued disruption by the Opposition.
Meanwhile, Rajya Sabha Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu urged the government to reach out to different political parties to end the three-week-long impasse in the Rajya Sabha and hoped that order would be restored in the House from Monday.
"We have a long list of business. I hope the Parliamentary Affairs Minister and the government will also take into confidence the members of different political parties and come to some understanding by Monday. At least the House should run and have all this business," Naidu said in the House.
"Today (Friday) we are completing three weeks (of logjam). During my long stint in public life, I have seen very few distressing events as the present one. Rajya Sabha, the House of elders, could not discharge the mandated duties for three weeks. As the Chairman, I tried everything that I could but no result," Naidu said earlier.
