All through Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s 85-minute address, the Opposition kept raising slogans, which Sansad TV that does the live telecast of the proceedings <strong>blacked out (A suspension of radio or tv broadcasting)<\/strong> \u2014 the camera did not pan towards the Opposition benches. Earlier, acting on a complaint filed by a BJP Member of Parliament, Mr. Dhankhar suspended Congress Member of Parliament Rajani Patil for <strong>allegedly (According to what has been declared but not proved) <\/strong>recording the proceedings on her mobile phone. The Congress <strong>cried foul (Protest that a rule has been broken or claim an injustice)<\/strong> that due procedure had not been followed and that she had not been served a notice giving her a chance to explain her position. Mr. Dhankhar <strong>interjected (To insert between other elements) <\/strong>the speech of Congress president and Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge\u2019s 88-minute speech during the Motion of Thanks to the President\u2019s Address several times. The Opposition has protested the Chair\u2019s repeated direction to \u201cauthenticate\u201d remarks made during speeches. Mr. Kharge has pointed out that \u201cit would be [an] <strong>inversion (The reversal of the normal order) <\/strong>of the system of government if the opposition members are expected to carry out complete investigation, gather evidence and then raise the matter on the floor of the House\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Six portions of Mr. Kharge\u2019s speech were <strong>expunged (Remove by erasing) <\/strong>from the Rajya Sabha records, while Congress leader Rahul Gandhi\u2019s Lok Sabha speech got 18 cuts. Parliament is the platform where the Opposition has the responsibility to ask questions of the government, which the Council of Ministers has the responsibility to answer. There are parliamentary rules and norms that have evolved over time to achieve this objective. It will be a <strong>travesty (something that does not have the qualities or values that it should have, in a way that is often shocking or offensive) <\/strong>of parliamentary democracy if the Opposition is penalised for seeking accountability from the government, which in turn is allowed to hide behind rules and <strong>obfuscate (Make obscure or unclear) <\/strong>the issue. It is the government that is in custody of all the information, over which queries are raised in Parliament. The authenticity, or the lack of it, of any assumption that a Member of Parliament may express in the House must be clarified by the government, which is its duty. It is a strange situation that the government has not responded to the serious allegations that it faces of protecting private business interests at the cost of public interest, while those who are raising the questions face suspension in the name of discipline. Parliamentary discipline must ensure that discussions take place, and the government provides the answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to improve your vocabulary further?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/vocabulary\/the-hindu-editorial-vocabulary-download-free-pdf\/\">Download the Lists of Word-Meanings of Previous Months here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to update your vocabulary on an ongoing basis?
