New Delhi: Lok Sabha will discuss the Liberhan
Commission report and Action Taken on it on Monday and
Tuesday.
Announcing this in the House, Speaker Meira Kumar said
the discussion will be held under Rule 193 (which does not
entail voting).
Earlier, the Business Advisory Committee had decided that
the discussion would be held on December 9 and 10 but it has
been advanced by two days as the Hindi version of the report
was tabled in the House yesterday, she said.
In view of this, a discussion on Naxalism and Maoist
violence, slated for Monday, has been postponed, Kumar said.
The debate on the report, tabled in Parliament on November
24, was to be held on December one but it was postponed after
several members protested that the Hindi version was not
available to them.
Accordingly, Home Minister P Chidambaram tabled the Hindi
version of the report as well as the ATR in the Lok Sabha and
the Rajya Sabha yesterday.
Revati Raman Singh (SP) said many Hindi-knowing members
still had not got the Hindi version of the report. He was
joined by Mangni Lal Mandal of JD-U.
On this, Parliamentary Affairs Minister P K Bansal
promised to make these available.
