New Delhi [India], December 16 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Sanjay Singh on Monday morning moved suspension of business notice in Rajya Sabha, demanding a discussion on the law and order situation in Delhi. He said that Delhi has become a “hub of crime,” which poses a threat to the safety of citizens including public representatives.
“I would like to draw your attention to the rapidly rising crime and deteriorating law and order in Delhi. Delhi, which is the administrative centre of the country, has now become a hub of crime. The incidents happening here are posing a serious threat to the safety of not only citizens but also public representatives,” Singh said.
In the notice, Singh mentioned the alleged attack on former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal which happened on November 30, 2024, saying that such incidents have created an atmosphere of “fear and insecurity” among people.
“The alleged attack on former Chief Minister of Delhi, Shri Arvind Kejriwal on November 30, 2024, has also raised serious questions on political and public safety,” Singh said.
Recent incidents like the murder of a child in Shalimar Bagh, bomb blast in Prashant Vihar, threats to schools in Rohini, murder of a businessman in Shahdara, and shooting of a gym trainer in broad daylight in Trilokpuri are evidence of this deteriorating situation, he added.
“These incidents have created an atmosphere of fear and insecurity among the citizens of the capital. Therefore, I request you to urgently discuss these issues under Rule 267,” he said.
Meanwhile, Congress MP Vijay Vasanth on Monday morning moved an adjournment motion notice in the Lok Sabha to discuss the detention of Tamil Nadu fishermen by Sri Lanka authorities.
“In 2024 alone, 350 fishermen and 49 fishing boats have been apprehended, the highest in the last six years. The government must urgently address this ongoing issue,” Vasanth, who is Congress Lok Sabha MP from Kanyakumari, said in the adjournment motion notice.
The issue significantly impacts the livelihoods of over 11 lakh people engaged in fishing across Tamil Nadu, the Congress MP said, adding that the fisherfolk communities, spread across more than 608 marine fishing villages in Tamil Nadu, consist of over 10.48 lakh fisherfolk and fishing remains the primary livelihood.
Earlier, Congress MP Manickam Tagore moved an adjournment motion notice in the Lok Sabha on Monday to discuss the removal of the 1971 war photograph from Army Headquarters, New Delhi and its implications.
