No-Confidence Motion: BJP Member of Parliament Nishikant Dubey Tuesday opened debate from the government side on No-Confidence Motion in Lok Sabha after Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi initiated attacks on the Modi government over the Manipur issue.
He took a dig at former Congress president Sonia Gandhi who was present in the Lok Sabha saying she has two primary jobs- bete ko set karna hai aur damad ko bhent karna hai (Set the son and give presents to the son-in-law). Her son is Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi and her son-in-law is Robert Vadra.
"This No-Confidence Motion has been brought. Why has this been brought? Sonia ji (Gandhi) is sitting here...I think she has to do two things - Bete ko set karna hai aur Damad ko bhent karna hai...That is the base of this Motion," he asserted.
While questioning the opposition's No-Confidence Motion, he said it was against the son of the poor and the policies of the Prime Minister.
"They must remember, those undressed Draupadi (in Mahabharata) couldn't survive and here too they won't survive," the BJP MP said.
Earlier, Gogoi initiated the No-Confidence Motion in Lok Sabha and initiated a debate on the same. The Opposition I.N.D.I.A had moved the No-Confidence Motion against Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the Manipur violence. On Tuesday, as the lower house took up the motion moved by Gogoi, there were heated exchanges and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi wondered why Rahul Gandhi's name as lead speaker was withdrawn last minute.
The PM is expected to participate in the discussion on August 10. Interestingly, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will also speak on the issue on the same day, sources said.
Gogoi lambasts government
Initiating the debate on the motion in the Lok Sabha, Gogoi alleged that a government which talks about "one India has created two Manipurs — one living in hills and the other in the valley". He said the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) parties were forced to bring the no-confidence motion as this was never about numbers but about justice for Manipur. He questioned PM Modi's silence on the issue. Had the video not gone viral, he would have not spoken, the Congress MP said.
