Our neighbouring country Bangladesh where the minorities and the Hindus are being tortured and being killed. Bangladesh is our neighbouring country attached to our state of West Bengal. We are making an appeal that let the government of India appeal to the United Nations to send peacekeeping forces to Bangladesh immediately Government of India is totally silent now, the reason of which is best known to them. Our appeal is that EAM come to the parliament and inform us of the latest position of Bangladesh.

Winter Session of Parliament Updates:
During a discussion of wage disbursement under MGNREGS, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey says "...MNREGA funds go to Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana on the basis of labour component and I think that perhaps the GoI has permitted it. Do MNREGA funds go to the state government's scheme Abua Awas Yojana, is it permitted in the labour component? If it is not permitted, then what action have you taken? I want to ask this from the Minister (Shivraj Singh Chouhan)..."

Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan says "MNREGA money is for paying wages to labourers. Under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana also, wages can be given to the member of the family whose house is being built. If this money goes to the Abua Awas Yojana, we will investigate it and if it has been misused, we will take action against it."

Winter Session of Parliament Updates:
Samajwadi Party MP Ram Gopal Yadav in Rajya Sabha-

On 24th December, at 6 am, police was deployed in the entire Sambhal. The people of Sambhal did not even know why the police were being deployed. After some time, the DM, SSP, lawyer, and some people went with the police playing drums and entered the mosque. The crowd suspected that they were going to vandalize the mosque. SDM opened the water tank and when water started flowing out, people suspected that something was going wrong in it, and then there was unrest. The police opened fire, 5 people were killed, 20 people were injured, cases were filed against hundreds of people and many are in jail, Those who were caught were beaten badly. I and many other people believe that in the elections that were held earlier in Uttar Pradesh, the police in the neighbouring districts did not allow anyone to cast their vote and forcibly took over the elections. All this happened in a way to divert attention from that.

Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan In Lok Sabha-

The government of West Bengal has committed the crime of benefiting certain people by reducing big works to small ones. Under this scheme, ineligible people were made eligible and eligible people were made ineligible, this has been proved, the names of rural development schemes have been changed. They have committed the crime of changing the name of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana and keeping their own name. Even under the same scheme, ineligible people were given benefits and eligible people were left out. This amount is not for misuse, it is not for benefiting ineligible people. The West Bengal government did not take any effective action on that. As PM Modi 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas', but we will not allow the misuse of funds.
