[New Delhi] Mulayam Becomes Hard On Centre :Alleges Conspiracy in Par Session
Samajwadi Party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav on Thursday alleged a “conspiracy” on part of the government in extending the Parliament session
When the House was debating amendments to the insolvency law, Yadav raised a point of order, saying most of the seats are empty.
“Lok Sabha used to be a model for state assemblies. But look so many seats are empty … members have to attend marriages … there is a conspiracy on part of the government in running the House. People’s money is being wasted … tell me a valid reason for running the House,”
He was supported by some Congress members and Saugata Roy (TMC) who was sitting next to the SP leader.
Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Arjun Ram Meghwal said there was quorum and the House has sufficient members.
