New Delhi: MP Shashi Tharoor against not being ready to discuss border conflict with China in Parliament. Tharoor also said that the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru was ready to discuss the issue even during the 1962 war. Tharoor asked to discuss the issue.
Even during the India-China war in 1962, the then Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru was ready to discuss it in Parliament. He was ready to listen to everyone. Around 100 MPs participated in the discussion on that issue. Such things should happen in a democracy. Don’t forget that our country needs credibility in Parliament. Even if it is a matter of national security, it needs to be discussed. China has been creating problems along the border since 2017. The problems that happened in Doklam in 2017 are still going on. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh’s statement is unsatisfactory. It is just a vague statement. He did not even allow the question to be raised. This is not democracy – said Tharoor.
The government was not ready to discuss the border issue in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The opposition parties came forward against this.
