Canisters, chaos, questions
Persons jumping into the Lok Sabha chamber while the House is in session and releasing some unknown gas from canisters, creating panic and chaos, is no small security breach. The Speaker of the House seems to own the responsibility of the security of the House, exonerating the government. The Opposition’s demand that the Prime Minister and the Home Minister should reach the House and offer an explanation is visibly justifiable. The Opposition’s fervent chanting with its demands was not taken in its true spirit by the Speaker or the government. Instead, that was described as ‘disrupting the proceedings’ leading to many suspensions. This is most undemocratic and looks to evade the main question.
P.R.V. Raja,
