BJP disallowed Parliament sessions to hide its ‘misdeeds’: Kharge
Kalburgi: Blaming the BJP responsible for the recent Parliament deadlock followed by the no-confidence motion moved by the Opposition, Congress Leader M. Mallikarjun Kharge alleged that BJP the disrupted the sessions to cover up its ‘misdeeds’ with regard to vital issues such as Punjab National Bank fraud and Rafale deal.
Addressing a press conference here on Wednesday, He said that the BJP did not want to allow the discussions over the vital issues in Parliament as it was worried to get exposed before the nation.
“We had repeatedly moved adjournment motions to draw the attention of Lok Sabha on matters of urgent public importance having serious consequences such as PNB scam, Rafale deal, farmers’ suicide and atrocities on Dalits in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and other States.
The BJP knew that it would have to stand exposed before the nation if discussions over such vital issues are allowed in Parliament. It didn’t want to dent its image, especially ahead of Assembly elections in Karnataka. That is why it disallowed the deliberations, triggering heated debates and disruptions of sessions by NDA partners leading to Parliament deadlock. It is despotism by the majority,” he said.
District Congress Committee President Jagadev Guttedar, Jevargi MLA Ajay Singh, Congress nominee for Gulbarga South Allamaprabhu Patil and others were present.

Adequate LPG stock in Chhattisgarh, no need to panic, says CM Sai
Raipur (PTI): Amid reports of shortage of commercial LPG cylinder in several parts of the country due to the US-Israel-Iran conflict, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai on Tuesday assured people that they need not worry about the availability of cooking gas in the state.
He asserted that adequate stock of LPG as well as petrol and diesel was available in the state.
Sai said in a statement that authorities have been directed to regularly monitor stock at gas agencies and keep a close watch on the supply chain. Necessary instructions were issued to officials in all districts to ensure a smooth supply of LPG.
The chief minister instructed officials to take strict action if any complaint of black marketing or hoarding of LPG cylinders is received.
Sai urged state residents not to pay attention to rumours and to book cooking gas cylinders as per their actual requirement.
The government was fully alert to ensure the availability of essential commodities to citizens, he emphasised.
Meanwhile, the Chhattisgarh Hotel and Restaurant Association has issued an advisory to hotels, restaurants, caterers and other food businesses across the state, urging them to maintain calm and avoid panic buying.
In the advisory, Taranjeet Singh Hora, president of the association, asked members to maintain coordination and immediately inform it about any major disruption in LPG supply.
He cautioned businesses against hoarding cylinders, saying such practices could worsen the situation for the entire hospitality sector.
The association advised hotels and restaurants to prioritise essential kitchen operations, core menu items and already committed banquet events.
Use electric cooking equipment wherever possible for emergency and staff kitchens such as induction cooktops, electric hot plates, electric rice cookers and kettles, the advisory stated.
