PREPARED FOR A STORMY SESSION: File photo Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Photo: V.V. Krishnan.
Confrontation appears imminent in the Monsoon Session of Parliament beginning on Monday with a combative Prime Minister Manmohan Singh telling the opposition bluntly of having “too many skeletons in its cupboard”, a remark that raised the hackles of the BJP.
“We are not afraid of discussing issues of corruption. The opposition also has too many skeletons in its cupboard. We are not afraid of discussing any issue,” Dr. Singh told reporters after an all party meeting convened by Speaker Meira Kumar on the eve of the Monsoon Session.
Dr. Singh’s remark came in response to a question whether the government was apprehensive of a tough session ahead in view of the Left and the Right making common cause on the issue of corruption and price rise.
Virtually accepting Singh’s challenge, Leader of the Opposition Sushma Swaraj dared the government declaring “let us see who attacks whom from tomorrow“.
She also accused Dr. Singh of starting a confrontation even before the start of the five-week long session.
“See he has started it. The government is free to bring out all the arrows in its quiver. Let us see who has more arrows in its quiver,” she countered.
"Hope 2G is not pre-judged"
