This Committee and this report has broken every rule in the book. In essence, you’re finding me guilty of breaching a code of ethics that does not exist. The committee is for engaging in a practice that is routine, accepted, and encouraged in the House. The findings are based solely on the written testimonies of two private citizens whose versions contradict each other in material terms, none of whom I was allowed to cross-examine that is all .
Now, the Fari Exchange in the loksabha, the Congress member of Parliament, Manish Tiwari said that he disagrees with the order that has been given by the honorable Speaker of the House saying that the Parliament had been convened where the parliamentarians are present as a jury to decide the fate of one of their own colleagues .
Now, the Cash for Questions scandal against the TMC member of Parliament, Moitra, stems from a complaint that was filed by a ruling party lawmaker.
