Parliament Budget Session Live Updates | Centre to consider setting up inquiry for not allotting flats in Delhi under JNNURM: Manohar Lal

Union Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Manohar Lal said the Centre will consider a suggestion to set up an inquiry for non-allotment of around 48,000 flats constructed in the national capital for the poor under Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM).

Replying to a supplementary during Question Hour in the Rajya Sabha, he said flats in Delhi were constructed in 2012 under the JNNURM scheme, with the support of both the central and state government.

Lal said he was "astonished" that these homes were not allotted to the poor by the then Delhi government under Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

Parliament Budget Session Live Updates | 'Don't like fact that they can say whatever they want and Opposition cannot': Rahul Gandhi

"We don't like the fact that they can say whatever they want, whenever they want, and the opposition cannot," Lok Sabha LoP and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on the Naravane book row.

"The story started a few days ago when the issue of the Naravane book came, and the government didn't want me to discuss that at all. So they stalled the House. They didn't let me speak. That happened three or four times. First, they said that I cannot quote a book. Then I said I'm not quoting a book, I'm quoting a magazine. Then they said you cannot quote a magazine. Then I said I'll speak about it. Then they didn't want me to speak about it. The Defence Minister said, falsely, that the book has not been published. In fact, the book has been published and we've got a copy of it also. So that is one big issue. Not allowing the LoP and the entire opposition to speak in the president's address. The second issue is that one of their members spoke, quoting books, multiple books, spoke very vile stuff, and nothing was said. We don't like the fact that they can say whatever they want, whenever they want, and the opposition cannot. The third issue is the suspension of our members," he further said.

"And the final issue, which we are very disturbed about, is this idea that has been floated that members were going to threaten the Prime Minister. There's no question of that. The fact is very clear. The Prime Minister was scared to come to the House, not because of the members, but because of what I was saying. He's still scared because he cannot face the truth. There's no question of our members attacking the Prime Minister. He should have the courage to come. I also mentioned that if somebody said that he's going to attack the Prime Minister, then please do an FIR at once. Arrest that person. Why are you not doing that? So that's basically what's happened," he concluded.

Parliament Budget Session Live Updates | Opposition should also get time to speak, we want the House to run: Abhishek Banerjee

Trinamool Congress (TMC) national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee on Monday said the party will write to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla to consider withdrawing the suspension of eight opposition MPs, adding that his party wants the Lok Sabha to run.

While talking to reporters in the Parliament complex, Banerjee evaded a direct reply to whether his party would support a no-confidence motion against the Speaker as being considered by other opposition parties, and said he has not had any discussions on the issue.

"We want the House to run and it is the responsibility of the government to run the House. The opposition should also get time to speak," Banerjee said.

"We have placed an appeal in front of the competent authority; we hope that the House will run..." he said.

Banerjee said an appeal will be formally placed before the Speaker seeking a review of the suspension of eight MPs and a restoration of democratic balance inside Parliament.
