New Delhi, August 10 (ANI): Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia launched a scathing attack on Congress and the Opposition parties in the Lok Sabha. As discussion on the No-confidence Motion is ongoing in the Parliament, Scindia tore into the Opposition and mocked them. In his speech of over 40 minutes, Scindia talked about India’s growth in PM Modi’s regime, and what were the drawbacks in the previous government’s policies. “It’s been 20 years that I am part of this Parliament, but I have never witnessed such a scene in the House. The words used by the Opposition for the PM, they should apologise not in the Parliament but, before the people of India for their remarks. They do not care about the dignity of the PM or the President. They only care about their stature,” Scindia said. He further said that the same people sitting in Opposition were tight-lipped on the issues that happened earlier and now they are not letting the Parliament function for the past 17 days over their demand for a statement from Prime Minister Narendra Modi over Manipur. “Today they are talking about maun vrat, I want to ask them why PM PV Narasimha Rao was silent when there was violence in Manipur in 1993. In 2011 too, when there was a clash in Manipur and the state faced blockades for more than 100 days, then why PM Manmohan Singh was silent in the Parliament? If this is not the politics of convenience, then what is it? Our PM spoke about Manipur outside the Parliament, but they want a discussion inside the Parliament. Home Minister has time and again said we are ready for discussion, but they did not let the Parliament function for the past 17 days.” the Union Minister said.
