'NDA has majority': Kiren Rijiju on opposition's no-confidence motion against Dhankhar

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 10 December 2024
Union Minister Kiren Rijiju dismissed the opposition's no-confidence motion against Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar, citing the NDA's majority and Dhankhar's commitment to public welfare. Rijiju condemned the motion, filed by 60 INDIA bloc MPs, who accuse Dhankhar of partisan conduct. The motion is unlikely to succeed due to the opposition's lack of numbers in the Rajya Sabha.
