Parliament must function - nation urges all political parties to have a collaborative and consultative process in the Parliament.
DIVIDED POLITICIANS = DIVIDED NATION = SECURITY OF PEOPLE RISKED
Recent events have been disheartening as these have the potential of eroding popular trust of people on Parliament. Regular disruption can never be the valid rule in a healthy democracy. Street demonstrations against the Chair of the Lower House are of unprecedented scale and while the Lower house is without some opposition members, the upper house is perpetually adjourned not for a day but for entire Monsoon session. Its pathetic murder of democracy by few arrogant leaders led by Sonia Gandhi and her yeomen.
The importance of uninterrupted legislative function of the Parliament can hardly be over emphasized. Important laws like the Constitution amendments in Goods and Services Tax which improves India’s growth rate is held up. GST has taken a long time in coming and has taken years of consensus building, and CII has time and again reiterated that this could significantly contribute to India’s and States’ growth.
India has to grow in order to alleviate poverty and create jobs. Parliament did not get an opportunity to discuss important issues, like floods, security issues, other economic priorities, etc. It is only a debate which brings out the facts to enable people to form a fair and objective opinion on important matters.
We, therefore, urge all political parties to have a collaborative and consultative process in the Parliament and allow the Parliament to function, to debate and legislate.
