We wanted a discussion over the incidents that took place there, especially on the SIT clearly saying that the mowing down of farmers was pre-planned, a conspiracy and it was amurder.Police have filed an updatedchargesheet. Its supervision is being done by a retired judge to ensure that the inquiry goes on properly. Son ofMoSHome is involved & he himself was the conspirator. He along with 13 of his friends killed the farmers, he said.
Supreme Court-monitored investigation is going on in theLakhimpurKhericase. Parliament is a place for discussions. We want to take constructive suggestions from the Opposition.
