New Delhi: Reinstated Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and Home Minister Amit Shah are likely to speak in Parliament today as the debate on the No-Confidence Motion over the Manipur crisis entered Day 2.
The Parliament resumed at 11 am for the second day of the no-confidence motion against the Narendra Modi government. Congress Lok Sabha MP Gaurav Gogoi had initiated the no-confidence debate on Tuesday, saying that the Opposition has brought this motion for Manipur. The 16-hour debate is expected to continue till Thursday (August 10), when Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to give his reply.
In Rajya Sabha, the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2023 is among the 6 bills to be tabled by the government today. Earlier on Tuesday, leaders of the Opposition alliance INDIA moved a privilege motion in the Rajya Sabha against Leader of the House Piyush Goyal for addressing some of the Opposition members as “traitors.” General Secretary in-charge of Communications for the Congress party, took to X (formerly Twitter), to express that “Nothing less than an apology from him on the floor of the House, when it is order, will do.”
The session, which started on July 20, has been continually disrupted by Opposition protests. The opposition contends that in view of the 170-plus deaths, injuries and displacements of thousands of people since the ethnic violence broke out in May, there is nothing more urgent that can demand the Prime Minister’s attention.
The government has argued that after major violence took place in Manipur in 1993 and 1997, no statement was made in the Parliament in one case and in the other, the junior home minister had given a statement.
