Kiren Rijiju slams Opposition
Union Minister Kiren Rijiju has slammed the Opposition for establishing an uproar in the Rajya Sabha over acceptance of the Waqf Amendment Invoice file.
“I even like checked the worries raised by the Opposition. There is never such a thing as a deletion or elimination from the file. The entirety is on the bottom of the Dwelling. On what basis can the kind of explain be raised? The members of the Opposition are establishing an pointless jam, which is now not a truth. The allegation is untrue. The JPC conducted whole complaints as per the principles. The total Opposition members of the JPC participated in the final complaints in the ideal six months. The total dissent notes are hooked up in the Appendix of the file. They can not mislead the Dwelling,” he acknowledged.
