Parliament Nod for President's Rule in Jharkhand


New Delhi, July 29 (IANS) In the midst of a bedlam created by the opposition over spiralling prices, both houses of parliament Thursday approved without a debate the imposition of president's rule in Jharkhand.

A statutory resolution approving president's rule was put to voice vote and adopted in the Lok Sabha as well as the Rajya Sabha.

In the Lok Sabha, when Minister of State for Home Ajay Maken tabled the resolution, opposition members trooped to the speaker's podium demanding adjournment of the house to pave the way for a debate over the rising prices of essential commodities.

The legislation was adopted by a voice vote amid the din.

In the Rajya Sabha, the resolution was moved by Minister of State for Home Mulapally Ramachandran and passed amid an uproar.

Jharkhand was put under president's rule June 1 after the Bharatiya Janata Party withdrew its support to the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha-led government.

The state assembly has been kept in suspended animation.

    Dear Governor recommend President's Rule in Karnataka and throw out Karnataka bjp Government immediately. Enough is enough. The bjp is interested in corruption and Jaanvaars (animals) and not in Humans.
