Congress committing dacoity on rights of OBCs, SCs, STs: PM
“Wherever it (Congress) can do it, it will try to loot the claims of the SCs, STs and OBCs and give them to others,” said Modi.
Opposition parties in West Bengal including Congress and Left Front submitted a letter in the Assembly this morning with a demand to bring a no-confidence motion against Assembly Speaker Biman Banerjee.
The Congress and the Left Front had yesterday decided to bring a no-confidence motion against Mr Banerjee for being allegedly “biased” towards the ruling Trinamul Congress.
Leader of Opposition and senior Congress MLA Abdul Mannan said that the Opposition have been either prevented from speaking or have been stopped from raising an important issue. “The Speaker should act in an impartial way,’’ he said.

According to Mannan, the Opposition had wanted to bring no-confidence motion during the winter session but was not allowed citing technical flaws.
CPI(M)MLA Sujan Chakraborty said the Congress and the Left Front had time and again boycotted the all party meetings convened in the state Assembly as the TMC does not give enough importance to the Opposition.
However, state Parliamentary affairs minister Partha Chatterjee said that the allegations against the Speaker and ruling party are absolutely baseless and ridiculous.
“They (Opposition) are not interested in attending the House proceedings, they are only interested in drama,” he said. Speaker Biman Banerjee did not comment on this issue.
