PM Modi will respond to the no-confidence motion today at 4 p.m
After two days of spirited discussion on the no-confidence motion, which is currently in its final leg today, PM Modi will respond. The Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) made the motion in response to the violence in Manipur.
The no-confidence debate was initiated by Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi. He claimed during the discussion that the Opposition was compelled to introduce the no-trust resolution in order to end Prime Minister Modi’s “maun vrat” (silence) on the Manipur problem.
The Manipur issue has stalled House operations ever since the Monsoon session of Parliament began on July 20 as a result of the Opposition’s demand that Prime Minister Modi make a statement on the subject.
Key Highlights of What Has Happened So Far:-
1. The last two days have seen a heated exchange of words between the two sides, with the opposition blaming the government for fomenting division in Manipur, where unrest has been raging for more than three months.
In response, the Centre defended its actions, placed a strong emphasis on its efforts in welfare and development, and poked fun at the Opposition over a number of topics.
2. In his maiden speech in Parliament following his reinstatement as an MP, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi unleashed a harsh attack on the BJP government, claiming that it had “divided” Manipur into two sections.
He spoke extensively about his trip to Manipur and claimed that the country’s actions had “murdered India” in the state plagued by violence.
3. The BJP members demanded an apology after Rahul Gandhi’s words caused a stir. In addition, the Congress leader caused a stir with his “flying kiss” as he left the House of Representatives.
According to a complaint made to the Speaker by a number of female BJP lawmakers, the Gandhi scion made “inappropriate gestures towards Union Minister Smriti Irani.
4. Amit Shah, the Union Home Minister, charged that the Congress had politicized the Manipur violence and asserted that the BJP was always open to talks.
Additionally, he stated that the level of violence in the northeastern state was decreasing and pleaded with the opposition “not to add fuel to the fire.”
5. Voting will begin once PM Modi responds to the motion of no confidence. Given its overwhelming majority in the Lok Sabha, the BJP is predicted to easily win the no-trust vote. While the NDA has 331 MPs, the BJP alone has 303 MPs, considerably beyond the majority threshold of 272.
There are 143 members of India, the opposition group. 70 lawmakers are not part of either of the two alliances.
