In a dramatic turn of events, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Friday lambasted the Congress party for impeding Lok Sabha proceedings by avoiding the scheduled debate on the Motion of Thanks on the President's address, accusing them of undermining parliamentary conventions.
The political altercation erupted soon after the Lok Sabha adjournment occurred amidst opposition uproar demanding an exclusive discussion on the NEET issue before engaging in the Motion of Thanks debate.
Rijiju resolutely stated, "The government is open to discussions on any subject, but the Congress's tactic to obstruct parliamentary activities is deplorable. The long-standing traditions of parliamentary protocols are being blatantly ignored by them."
