BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Thursday trained guns in the Congress on the protest against three controversial bills in the Lok Sabha, who prevent any minister, Chief Minister or Prime Minister from holding office after arresting them.
The bill was introduced by Amit Shah amidst a storm of opposition protests and it was also seen that the draft law was torn and pieces of paper were swept away at the Union Home Minister.
The opposition alleged that the proposed bill would empower agencies to deal with political rivalry, target opposition parties and reduce constitutional security measures.
Talking to reporters outside Parliament, Dubey targeted the Congress, alleging that the party jailed “potential people” from its party and his colleagues.

“… … AAP (Congress) did not even leave his own party. Madhavarao Scindia and Rajesh Pilot, who were possible opponents of the Gandhi family, were sent to jail … who sent Kanimoji and Raja to jail? … You send possible people from your party. Thackeray …” Thackeray … “Dubey said, according to Annie.
He also said that he was proud that he did not allow any “fight” in Parliament.
“Lok Sabha is not a wrestling area. I am proud that I did not let any fight yesterday … I saved the MPs,” Dubey said, according to PTI.
What are the three bills?
Three Bills – Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill, Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization (Amendment) Bill and the Government of Center (Amendment) Bill – proposes that a minister, Chief Minister or Prime Minister may lose his post within a month, if he is arrested or detained for more than a jail, which is detained for five years or more work for five years.
Amit Shah introduced three bills-in which the house would require a two-thirds majority, which was strongly opposed by the opposition immediately and by the opposition.
As stated by HT, Kalyan Banerjee of Trinamool Congress, who stood in front of Shah, tried to use the minister’s microphone to oppose the bill. Some other TMC members threw papers in front of the minister. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, who was sitting in the second line, fled to stand between the protesters and Shah. Minister of State Ravneet Singh Bittu also came down.
Finally, after a voice vote, the bill introduced the Bill at 3.02 pm and sent AA Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) by 3.05 pm after another voice vote.
