Chairman informed the House
As soon as the House proceedings began today, Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar said, “I inform the members that during the routine checking after the adjournment of the House yesterday, security officials recovered a bundle of currency notes from seat number 222, Which is currently allotted to Abhishek Manu Singhvi from Telangana state. The matter was brought to my notice, and I ensured that the investigation is done and it is underway.”
Abhishek Manu Singhvi said that whenever I go to Rajya Sabha, I take a note of Rs 500 with me. I heard about it for the first time. I reached the House at 12:57 and the House woke up at 1 o’clock, then I sat in the canteen till 1:30 and then left the Parliament. He said that this entire matter should be investigated.
Earlier, as soon as Jagdeep Dhankhar informed the House about this matter, an uproar started in the House. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge said that you should not take his name until the investigation of the matter is going on and everything becomes clear. After this statement of Kharge, the ruling party MPs started creating ruckus.
BJP President and Union Health Minister JP Nadda said that this is a very unfortunate and serious issue. This is an attack on the dignity of the House. I had hoped that the opposition leaders would also demand a detailed investigation. The opposition should always come forward with a healthy mind and healthy spirit. Both sides should condemn this.
