He said that the NDA government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has nothing to hide. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju had already talked about discussing the NEET issue. Now the opposition has to decide whether to discuss or avoid discussion. He said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, the government is always ready to discuss every issue.
Clarification given on presence in the house
Responding to allegations of absconding made by the opposition, the Home Minister said that he has been coming to Parliament regularly since the beginning of the session and is present in his chamber.

Rahul Gandhi's counterattack – 'We have no interest in listening to Shah's lecture'
Meanwhile, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi hit back at Shah and said, 'We are not interested in listening to Home Minister Amit Shah's fantasies or his lectures. The young generation of the country wants to know who opened fire on the students at Jantar Mantar. If he does not give the order then he should resign.
'Home Minister does not have courage, he cannot come to the House'
Rahul said – 'Who shot the students? Who gave the order to beat the students with sticks studded with nails? Did Amit Shah order to shoot our children? If he has then he should resign. Thousands of policemen stand in front of his house. There are 30 vehicles behind them to ensure that no child comes in. Amit Shah is missing for the last 20 days. The Home Minister has no courage. He cannot come to the House.
