New Delhi: During the discussion on the budget in Parliament, Aam Aadmi Party’s Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh cornered the government on issues ranging from Arvind Kejriwal’s arrest to the study of Manu Smriti in Delhi University. Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar also objected to Sanjay Singh’s statement on the allegations of arresting leaders and the study of Manu Smriti. The chairman also took a dig at Sanjay Singh’s demand regarding the jail budget.
While counting the shortcomings of the budget, the Rajya Sabha MP of Aam Aadmi Party said that these people have even cut the jail budget. They should have increased the jail budget. He said that we have just come from jail, tomorrow you have to go to jail. Taking a jibe at this, Chairman Dhankhar asked the Leader of the House to pay attention to Sanjay Singh’s demand.
Sanjay Singh accused the government that you have put the Chief Minister of Delhi, Education Minister, Health Minister in jail. Three ministers of Bengal have been put in jail. Expressing objection to this statement of Sanjay Singh, Jagdeep Dhankhar said that this country runs by law.
The police arrests and the court sends the person to jail. In this country, no matter what position a person holds, if he is in jail, it is on a remand letter from a judicial magistrate. The statement of the honourable member is wrong. He told Sanjay Singh that you are experienced. When you went to jail, initially the role was of the agency, but after that the role of the magistrate comes.
Responding to this, Sanjay Singh said that this is the first time in the history of Indian judiciary that a person gets bail and without a copy of the bail, ED goes to the court and stops his release. Please tell me under whose jurisdiction ED works, Sir. ED works under Narendra Modi.
