CPI MP alleges impropriety of procedure in presenting JPC report on Waqf Amendment Bill

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: Rajya Sabha MP of the Communist Party of India Sandosh Kumar P has written to the Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla alleging impropriety of procedure in presenting the Joint parliamentary committee report on Waqf Amendment Bill, 2024 in both Houses of Parliament. Kumar also mentioned ‘divergent statements’ concerning the ‘expunction’ made by the union ministers when some members of the Committee, who are Rajya Sabha MPs, had protested on the day the report was listed to be presented on February 13. “It is crystal clear that dissent notes were modified as an afterthought, it is neither reflected in the proceedings of the Lok Sabha nor the Report uploaded on the Digital Sansad website on February 13. In the communiqué, Kumar said that the remarks of the home minister in Lok Sabha, which stated the ruling party has no objection to inclusion of dissent notes in the report, “smacks of the pure authoritarian approach of this Government.” He further questioned, “Why do a JPC which has an independent existence from the executive and is supposed to oversee their functions require the ruling party’s opinion or acceptance to publish its report in whatever form it desires.
