TMC MP raises Augusta Westland issue, Congress MPs stall the house
May 02, 2016
New Delhi
In reference to Augusta Westland scam, Trinamool Congress MP Sukhendu Shekhar Roy today stood up in Rajya Sabha and said, “Defence minister has to give a statement that who took bribe? Who is Gandhi, who is AP, who is Shashikant(in Augusta Westland case documents). Government will have to reveal these identities. Defense Minister will need to reveal it.”
As soon as Sukhendu Shekhar completed his speech, a group of Congress MPs stood up and rushed to well shouting slogans seeking discussion on GSPC issue.
BJP MP Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi alleged that this was Congress party’s diversionary tactic to suppress the Augusta Westland issue.
The house had to be adjourned soon.
