Govt made noise, later made a U-turn and ran off: Rahul Gandhi on land bill

04 Aug 2015 Evaluate

Taking a swipe at government over its U-turn on the land bill, Rahul Gandhi said it ‘ran off’ after ‘threatening’ and ‘shouting’ in the face of resistance by the Congress, a day after BJP members in a parliamentary panel moved amendments to restore provisions of the UPA's land law. Rahul said that similarly, on the issue of corruption, Vyapam, on the issue of Rajasthan Chief Minister and Sushma Swaraj, they will not reduce the pressure on government even if they throw them out of Parliament or do not let them to enter Parliament. He made the remarks while agitating with party MPs in Parliament House complex in protest against suspension of its 25 members from Lok Sabha. The Congress MPs faced action after they did now allow the house to function demanding the resignation of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Rajasthan CM Vasundhara Raje for allegedly helping Lalit Modi and Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan over Vyapam scam.

Reacting to the remarks, Rural Development Minister Birender Singh said that those who stand at 44 seats will speak only this language. Congress was reduced to its least tally of 44 seats in Lok Sabha in the last general elections. The barbs from both sides came as the government expressed readiness to accept the recommendations of the panel on land, which restored provisions of the UPA law, insisting that it was not a climb down as it was always open to changes on which there is consensus. All 11 BJP members moved amendments in Joint Committee of Parliament seeking to bring back key provisions of UPA's land law including on consent clause and social impact assessment by dropping the changes brought by Modi Government in December last year and subsequently revalidated by ordinances thrice.

Meanwhile, the suspension of 25 Congress MPs is expected to affect the proceedings of the parliamentary panel on land bill. Congress said that four of the five MPs in the committee would go for the meeting later today but come out soon after telling the panel that they are boycotting following suspension of their colleague Rajiv Satav. Satav is among the 25 Congress members suspended by Speaker Sumitra Mahajan yesterday for five days. The action of the Speaker also prohibits a member to attend any meeting of parliamentary committee, party leaders said.
