NEW DELHI: Opposition parties have sent a letter to Rajya Sabha chairperson M Venkaiah Naidu stating that the Government was “murdering democracy” in the Upper House by not letting them speak, the Trinamool Congress said today.
The letter was sent following a meeting of opposition parties to discuss strategy for parliament. The meeting took place after they joined hands in boycotting the Upper House for the first time in this budget session.
“We have raised our concern over the way the Upper House is been run. As a first step we are writing to the chairperson of the Rajya Sabha. We have said that the Government is murdering democracy in the House by not letting the opposition speak,” Trinamool Congress leader Derek O’Brien said.
The letter was signed by the Congress, the Trinamool Congress, Left parties and other opposition parties. (AGENCIES)
