No-confidence motion against the government was introduced by Congressman Gaurav Gogoi on behalf of the opposition parties in the I.N.D.I.A alliance and it was accepted by Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. The Speaker requested the number of members who supported the motion before admitting it, with the schedule of the debate to be determined afterward.
The speaker said, “I will discuss this with the leaders of all parties and inform you of an appropriate time to take this up for discussion.”
Gogoi, an MP from the northeast, represents Assam’s Kaliabor constituency.
A no-confidence resolution against the government was also filed by Bharat Rashtra Samithi, which has nine Lok Sabha MPs in addition to the Congress. Since the start of the monsoon session of Parliament on July 20, the two Houses have been adjourned numerous times.
The INDIA alliance, consisting of 26 parties, has filed a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government. The move aims to seek answers on issues like violence in Manipur. With less than 150 members in the Lower House, the opposition parties face potential defeat if they table a motion. Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal reassures the government is prepared for any situation.
“Let the No Confidence Motion come, Government is ready for every situation. We do want a discussion on Manipur…Before the commencement of the session, they wanted a discussion. When we agreed, they brought up the issue of Rules. When we reached an agreement on Rules, they brought in the new issue that the PM come and initiate discussion. I think these are all excuses…” Meghwal told ANI.
