Congress Likely to Keep Away from Joint Parliament Committee on 3 Home Ministry Bills: Sources
New Delhi: The party sources said on Monday that the Congress is likely to stay away from the Parliamentary Committee to examine the three invoices that require the abolition of senior government officials arrested for 30 days in serious charges. They said that the party’s decision could soon be forwarded to Lok Sabha speaker.
At least three parties – Trinamool Congress, Shiv Sena (UBT) and AAM AADMI Party – announced that they will not be part of the committee. The Samajwadi party implied that the opposition supports the opinion that the opposition should be united in order not to join the panel. Some opposition parties did not make the public open, but none of them expressed their desire to join the panel.
At the beginning of this month, the President of the Lok Sabha Om Birla told him that no political party was written to boycott the Parliament Joint Committee to examine three invoices.
“No political party has communicated to me in writing about it,” Birla said, “JPC.”
On the last day of the monsoon session, Interior Minister Amit Shah, Delik Sabha – Union Regions Government (Amendment) Law; Constitution (face and thirty amendments) law; and Jammu and Kashmir Rearrangement (Amendment) Law.
The proposed laws require the prime minister, chief ministers and ministers to be arrested for serious accusations for 30 days.
The invoices fired violent protests from all the opposition, claiming that they were unlikely to be against the constitution and aiming to target their leaders in power in different states.
The Assembly sent invoices to a joint Parliamentary Committee, which will be 21 members from Lok Sabha and 10 members from Rajya Sabha, but the panel has not yet been established.
