RLD’s Jayant Singh praises Modi govt for Bharat Ratna to Chaudhary Charan Singh
Kharge said it is a matter of pride and he "salutes" former prime ministers P V Narasimha Rao and Charan Singh and agriculture scientist M S Swaminathan, all of whom are being conferred with Bharat Ratna. "There is no debate on honouring leaders with Bharat Ratna. I salute everyone. But if a member wants to raise an issue, you (chairman) ask 'under which rule'. (I want to know) under which rule he (Jayant Singh) has been allowed to speak. Give permission to us also. On one side you talk about rule...You have discretion...that discretion should be used judiciously and not when you want...," Kharge said, leading to a huge uproar in the House.
