New Delhi [India], July 22 (ANI): Congress MP Manickam Tagore on Monday gave an adjournment motion notice in Lok Sabha, demanding a discussion on the ongoing controversy over the alleged irregularities in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) and University Grants Commission-National Eligibility Test (UGC-NET) conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA).
In his notice, Manickam Tagore urged the House to suspend all listed business of the day to discuss the “unprecedented cases of paper leaks in conduct of exams including NEET-UG and UGC NET and the failure of National Testing Agency (NTA).”
Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha witnessed several adjournments in the last session, with Congress and other opposition parties insisting on a debate on the NEET-UG controversy while the government was keen to take up the motion of thanks on the President’s address.
Meanwhile, Congress MP Manish Tewari gave an adjournment motion notice in the Lok Sabha demanding a discussion on border clashes between India and China and India’s trade deficit with China.
“Recently, China rejected the inauguration of the Seva tunnel and claimed parts of Arunachal Pradesh as its territory. Additionally, in 2023-24, India’s trade deficit with China exceeded USD 85 billion, with exports at USD 16.65 billion and imports at USD 101.75 billion,” Tewari’s adjournment motion notice said.
“I urge the Government to inform the House about the border situation and the trade deficit, and to provide details on efforts to resolve the border dispute and protect India’s integrity against Chinese aggressions. I request permission to raise this matter,” it added.
The Budget Session of Parliament will commence on Monday and subject to the exigencies of government business, the session is likely to conclude on August 12.
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will table the Economic Survey 2023-24 along with a statistical appendix in Parliament on Monday, a day ahead of the Union Budget. (ANI)
