Home Minister Amit Shah has stated that this is not the first time that someone’s comments made in Lok Sabha and Rajya have been removed from the proceedings and that the two Houses are a place to hold discussion under rules using parliamentary language. Amit Shah stated in his statement in response to the Congress’s criticism of the government for removing some remarks made by its leaders during the proceedings of both Houses.
In an exclusive interview to a news agency, the Home Minister also lashed out at the opposition chanting during the Prime Minister’s reply to the motion of thanks on the President’s address in Rajya Sabha. People should pay attention to what happens in Parliament, he added. He also mentioned about comments made on social media sites after PM Modi’s speech in the Rajya Sabha, which was frequently interrupted. “This is not the first time someone’s comments made in Parliament were expunged.”Parliament is a place where discussions should take place under rules, and only parliamentary languages must be followed in the House,” he said.
Amit Shah said people are mature and take these factors into account in their voting decisions. Congress leaders have slammed the government over some remarks by party leaders Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge that have been expunged. Rahul Gandhi, in a speech during the debate on the motion of thanks, had almost entirely devoted his speech to the Adani issue and made allegations against the Prime Minister.
He has been asked by the Lok Sabha Secretariat to respond to breach of privilege notices filed against him by BJP members. The first part of the budget session concluded on Monday. The sittings of the two Houses will resume on March 13, and the budget session will conclude on April 6. When asked about parties and governments being in election mode frequently due to election timing, Amit Shah said PM Modi has talked about holding one election from the panchayat level all the way up to the Parliament.
