Puducherry:
Union Minister of state for Parliamentary affairs V Narayanasamy
today accused the opposition of causing a loss of Rs 78 crore a
day to the Parliament, by not creating an atmosphere for debate.
Speaking to reporters here, he alleged they were trying to derive
political mileage by persisting in their demand for a JPC probe
into the alleged scam in 2G spectrum allocation.
"They are not interested in a debate but only trying to cast
aspersions and bring disrepute to the UPA government. By raising
allegations of irregularities in 2G spectrum allocation, they are
trying to divert people's attention."
Many important businesses like adoption of bill for women's
reservation, bills for labourers welfare and for addressing
demands of employees of JIPMER could not be taken up for
discussion due to the continued impasse, he added.
