"Went Back On His Word": Minister Jitendra Singh On Rahul Gandhi's 'Demands'
Union Minister Jitendra Singh criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for allegedly altering terms during parliamentary negotiations. Singh claimed the government had met initial requests for discussion before new conditions were introduced.
Union Minister Jitendra Singh addressed the ongoing stalemate in Parliament, asserting that the central government had initially agreed to the Congress party's demand for formal discussions. According to Singh, the administration demonstrated a willingness to engage with the opposition to ensure the smooth functioning of legislative proceedings.
However, Singh stated that Rahul Gandhi subsequently added another clause to the agreed-upon terms, characterizing the move as going back on his word. The Minister suggested that these changing demands have contributed to the continued disruptions and lack of consensus between the ruling party and the opposition bench.
The exchange highlights the deepening divide in Parliament as both sides trade accusations over providing space for debate. While the government maintains it is open to dialogue, Singh argued that the shifting requirements from the opposition leadership make a resolution difficult to reach. Source: NDTV
