Left pulls one from Mao's handbook: doesn't want Nandigram to be discussed in Parliament. Reason: it's a "state issue".
Wonder if only happenings in Delhi will be the only items discussed in Parliament and rest of nation given a pass?
If Gujarat can be discussed, why can't Nandigram: BJP
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> Keen to corner the UPA and Left, the BJP will move an adjournment motion in the Lok Sabha on the Nandigram violence on Monday.
The party contended that the matter amounted to a âcivil warâ and should be discussed in Parliament as Gujarat riots had been several times.
The Opposition party said Nandigram was not a state issue exclusively as it pertains to acquisition of land for Special Economic Zone (SEZ), which is a Central subject.
"Nandigram has witnessed severe crime against women and children and the Lok Sabha has a mandate to discuss issues like this, which amounts to a civil war," Deputy Leader of the Opposition V K Malhotra said in New Delhi.
