Opposition INDIA Bloc MPs today held a protest in Parliament complex over alleged bribery charges against a prominent Indian business group.
They were demanding a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe into this matter. Congress, Left and others joined the protest.
Several opposition MPs staged a protest carrying placards of different Hindi letters that jointly read ‘desh bikne nahin denge’ and raised slogans to reiterate their demand of a joint parliamentary probe into the Adani issue.
This is the latest in a series of unusual daily demonstrations led by the Congress over the Adani issue.
Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, MPs from the Congress, DMK, and the Left parties, among others, stood in front of the Makar Dwar steps and in front of Samvidhan Sadan with most of them carrying the placards that together read ‘desh bikne nahin denge (will not let the country be sold off)’.
They raised slogans against the alleged collusion between Modi and Adani and demanded a joint parliamentary committee (JPC) probe into the matter.
On Wednesday, several opposition MPs greeted their BJP counterparts in Parliament premises with a tricolour in the form of a card in one hand and a red rose in the other, as they urged the ruling party to ensure that the House functions and all issues, including the Adani matter, are discussed.
