Kharge demands RS chairman to restore expunged remarks from speech on President’s address
NEW DELHI: Rajya Sabha witnessed a sharp exchange on Friday, as Leader of Opposition (LoP) Mallikarjun Kharge urged Chairman C.P. Radhakrishnan to restore portions of his remarks that had been expunged from the official records.
The controversy arose from Kharge’s earlier speech on February 4 on the Motion of Thanks to the President’s Address, where he had critiqued Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s policies.
Before Question Hour commenced, Kharge raised the issue, requesting the Chair to reinstate his comments on the Prime Minister’s approach.
Chairman Radhakrishnan assured him that the matter would be looked into.
