He said: “I am glad that all the members of parliament are sitting patiently. The government is ready to discuss electoral reforms, but the opposition should not set the condition that it should be taken up before all other parliamentary matters.” He said that many important topics should be discussed. In the first meeting of the Business Advisory Committee, the government proposed a special discussion on the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram and this discussion was included in the list. The Union minister said that electoral reform is also an important topic, while Vande Mataram is an issue related to the freedom struggle. At the same time, many members also want to raise issues related to their respective states. Therefore, all subjects must be taken in order. He appealed to the opposition and said please do not insist that this discussion be held within a specific time limit. The government is ready, but let the House complete the listed business. Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge rejected the government’s argument and said that the notice given under Rule 267 should be given top priority. –IANS MS/VC Share this story Tags
