"Distressed by behaviour of opposition," says Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju

New Delhi [India], December 5 (ANI): Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Thursday expressed his distress over the constant protests by INDIA bloc since the beginning of the Winter Session of Parliament.
Rijiju accused the opposition of "disrupting" the parliamentary proceedings and "creating drama" outside the house.
"I am very distressed by the behaviour of the opposition parties since the beginning of the Winter Session today. When the Winter Session has begun and we have always taken decisions on important subjects like bills and discussion on the Constitution in the Business Advisory Committee, why is there protest by the Congress Party and their allies? Why are they disrupting the proceedings of the House and creating drama outside the Parliament House by running around? Is this the way to run the House?" Rijiju said.
Rijiju criticised the opposition for "running around" the parliament house and neglecting the important issues.
"The Parliament House is for debate and discussion and they are running around the Parliament House wearing colourful clothes. Today some of our MPs raised a very important issue. And these people are talking about some other issues which have nothing to do with the Government of India and they are running around the Parliament premises raising issues...I am very upset with opposition parties" Rijiju said.
Rijiju's stark criticism of opposition came after opposition MPs, including Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi, protested over the Adani matter, at the Parliament premises in the national capital.
Opposition MPs wore jackets symbolising their protest over the Adani issue and wore jackets mentioned: "Modi Adani Ek Hai, Adani safe hai."
"Modi ji can't get Adani ji investigated because if he does that, he would be getting himself investigated...Modi aur Adani ek hain. Do nahi hain, ek hain," said LoP Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi as he joined Opposition MPs in protest over Adani matter. (ANI)
