In the all-Party meeting convened by the Modi Govt today, my colleague Gaurav Gogoi, the Deputy Leader of the INC in the Lok Sabha, made the following demands for discussion in Parliament on behalf of the INC –

  1. Pahalgam, Sindoor, statements of LG J&K, CDS, Deputy COAS, and President Trump
  2. SIR votebandi exercise that will lead to mass disenfranchisement in Bihar, West Bengal, Assam, and other states, alongside other actions of ECI that threaten electoral democracy
  3. Foreign policy challenges with respect to China especially, the failure of neighbourhood diplomacy, the moral cowardice on Palestine, etc.
  4. Restoration of full statehood to J&K, Schedule VI status for Ladakh, and the situation in Manipur (a state that is still awaiting the PM’s visit)

He further insisted on a reply by the Prime Minister himself on these debates which must last a minimum of two days each:

Jairam Ramesh
MP, Gen Sec Congress
