It's Sibal vs Swaraj in Parliament

December 27, 2011 12:52

Sibal says Sushma Swaraj's arguments are flawed. Swaraj also wants to send the Lokpal Bill to the Parliamentary Standing Committee for further discussion, and wants the government to accept its amendments to improve the Lokpal Bill or else withdraw it.

Sibal says the people will not forgive the Opposition if the Lokpal Bill is not passed. Sibal can't go beyond saying, "madam, madam, madam", in quick succession, as Swaraj interrupts him.

Sibal says the government bill deals with graft, and the Parliament does have tje powers to deal with it.
