NEW DELHI: The BJP on Wednesday accused the Congress and the Trinamool Congress of "murdering democracy" by not letting its president Amit Shah talk in Parliament on the factor of National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Assam with their noisy protests.
Union minister Prakash Javadekar also asked the Congress and its former president Sonia Gandhi to make their stand clear on the factor of illegal Bangladeshi immigrants in the nation.
The TMC was once anxious because of rising strength of the BJP in West Bengal, Javadekar mentioned addressing a press convention.
Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad mentioned it was once a new low for parliamentary democracy that opposition members did not allow Amit Shah to speak. "This is a new precedent and a new low," he informed newshounds.
Javadekar hit out on the opposition after its members started protesting when Amit Shah rose to speak in the Rajya Sabha, forcing its adjournment for the day.
They had created a ruckus on Tuesday as neatly when Amit Shah mentioned that the BJP govt had to the courage to put into effect the Supreme Court's choice on the NRC while the former Congress dispensations lacked it.
"They deliberately raised objections to prevent Shah from completing his speech. It is murder of democracy to prevent a member of the House from speaking," Javadekar informed newshounds.
The Assam Accord to spot illegal immigrants was once designed by then Prime Minister and Congress chief Rajiv Gandhi, he mentioned, including that Shah handiest asserted that the BJP was once imposing the NRC, which was once the "soul" of the accord.
Javadeka claimed even Indira Gandhi had mentioned that the Bangladeshis will have to return to their nation after the situation there normalised following the Indo-Pak war in 1971.
"We now want to ask about the stand of Sonia Gandhi on the NRC and on evicting infiltrators from the country," the minister mentioned.
Javadekar also condemned TMC supremo Mamta Banerjee's reported commentary that exclusion of over 40 lakh people from the NRC in Assam would result in "civil war".
He also asserted that Amit Shah would participate in a Kolkata rally on August 11, pronouncing the local police had not finished any favour to the BJP by granting permission to it.
