Posted on 14th Sep 2020 04:31 pm by rohit kumar

According to the news agency ANI, 17 MPs including MPs Meenakshi Lekhi and Anant Kumar Hegde have been found infected with Corona. More information is awaited in this regard.

 

Special attention is being given to the Covid protocol in the Parliament House during the monsoon session.

 

It has been told that without showing a negative report of the Covid test, no MP, employee, or journalist can enter Parliament during this session.

 

The Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha Secretariat are making sure that no person can enter the Parliament without showing the Covid test report.

 

That is why Covid samples of most MPs were taken on Sunday so that when the session starts on Monday, they have a report of their Covid.

 

Shortly before the news of these MPs being found corona positive, Union Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan was giving information about the corona in Parliament.

 

He said in Parliament that 'due to the four-month lockdown, about 14 to 29 lakh cases of corona were left in India and the lives of 37-78 thousand people could be saved which could have been caused by covid-19'.

 

He said in the House, "Four months of lockdown gave India time to improve health infrastructure, also got time to devise a strategy against the epidemic, we could get better resources and needed things like PPE suits, N-95 masks and ventilators We could organize the production. Now we have become self-sufficient to prepare these things. "

 

The Health Minister gave the same old argument in the House that India has been successful in limiting the number of corona infected people per one million people. He said that this rate is the lowest in us.

 

He said that maximum cases of corona and maximum deaths from Covid-19 are in Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, West Bengal, Bihar, Telangana, Odisha, Assam, Kerala, and Gujarat. He said that all these states have registered more than one lakh cases of corona infection.

 

Government's response to angry opposition on question hour, we are not running away from debate

"This is an extraordinary situation. When the assemblies are not being held for a day, we are meeting 800-850 MPs here. There are many ways to ask questions to the government. The government is not avoiding arguing."

 

The issue of running the proceedings of Parliament without question hour was so hot on the first day of the Monsoon session that began on Monday that Parliamentary Affairs Minister Prahlad Joshi had to come forward to convince the opposition.

 

Congress MP in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary said at the end of the Question Hour, "Question period is golden period but you are saying that it cannot be done due to the circumstances. You are running the proceedings of Parliament but by ending the Question Hour. Trying to strangle democracy. "

 

Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, while trying to reassure the angry members, indicated that zero-hours can be used to ask questions to the government.

 

He said, "Leaders of most political parties agreed that there should not be a question hour and that there should be 30 minutes for the zero hour. We applaud the Speaker for this decision. I request that he cooperate in running the session Give because it is being organized at an extraordinary time. "

 

Modi appealed to MPs before the Parliament session

The monsoon session of Parliament has started from today and before that Prime Minister Narendra Modi appeared before the media. He told the media persons present there that after a long interval everyone is visible and asked, "You are all right, no problem has come to you and your family?

 

But before anyone says anything, Narendra Modi starts telling about the Parliament session. He said that "There is a corona as well as a duty. All the MPs have chosen the duty and thank them for this."

 

He urged the MPs about the army, "This session has a special responsibility that today, when the brave soldiers of our army are standing on the border, with high spirits, are inaccessible hills and after some time snow will fall."

 

"The faith with which they stand, is determined to protect the motherland, this house also, all the members of the House will give a message with a voice that the country stands behind the army personnel, Parliament and MPs. Stands through, I believe so. "

 

He also told journalists about the Corona epidemic that "you will get the news, but you must manage yourself, this is my prayer to you".

 

Parliament session

At the beginning of the Lok Sabha session, Congress leaders Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary and K Suresh came up with a proposal to postpone the session on the issue of Chinese incursion into Ladakh. The Lok Sabha's proceedings were adjourned for one hour after paying tribute to the departed members at the beginning of the session.

 

When the session started again, Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary and AIMIM Party MP Asaduddin Owaisi raised questions about the absence of question hour.

 

After this, DMK party MP TR Balu raised the issue of suicide of 12 students due to the pressure of the NEET exam. He said that all these students were from a rural environment.

 

BJP MP Ravi Kishan spoke on the drug trade spreading in the country and praised NCB's action in the Sushant Singh Rajput case.

 

Today, except for the first day, the proceedings of Parliament will run from 15 September to 1 October from 3 to 7 pm. Sessions will also be held on Saturday and Sunday.
