New Delhi: Ghulam Nabi Azad, leader of opposition in Rajya Sabha demanded action against tainted BJP leaders like Sushma Swaraj, Vasundhara Raje and Shivraj Singh Chouhan to run the Monsoon session smoothly here on Sunday.
bjpAsking Prime Minister Modi to remove the ministers, Azad said that the running of the Parliament and passage of important bills during the monsoon session will be more easy if the BJP takes action against these leaders while it will also help BJP in correcting its image which has taken a hit due to the scams.

Speaking to reporters Azad said, “The minimum action is removal all those, particularly the three, who are involved in Lalit gate, including Rajasthan chief Minister, other MP’s, Union Minister and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister and two ministers of Maharasthra.”

“I am hopeful that when the Parliament session starts day after, Prime Minister will start by saying that those involved or those on whom charges have been leveled in Lalit gate as well as Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister under whose leadership dozens of witnesses have been killed and thousands have got degrees in such a manner, he (PM) will announce their resignation,” he said.

“If the BJP takes action in the one or two days, in my opinion running of the Parliament will be more easy and passing of bills will be easier. It will also be an opportunity for correction for both BJP’s leadership and its image which has been dented in their 15 month rule,” he said.

“It is the work of the government to respect the demand of the opposition, take them into confidence and fulfill their demands. It is 100 per cent in the hands of government and Prime Minister has to decide whether Parliament will run or not,” he said.
