“HM should come and make a statement,” MP Rajiv Ranjan on suspension of MPs from the House

On suspension of 15 MPs from the House, JD(U) MP Rajiv Ranjan (Lalan) Singh says, “The suspensions have been done for the government to hide its failures. They want to scare the Opposition. You can’t govern by creating fear. If Opposition MPs were demanding a statement from the Home Minister regarding yesterday’s security failure, then what was wrong with it? HM should come and make a statement. They can suspend, they have the majority and can do whatever they want. You would have seen their conduct had the two men who entered the Parliament yesterday been Muslims or had it been a Congress MP who issued them passes.”
