Power of no-trust motion brought PM to House, says Adhir

Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Thursday said that only the power of the no-confidence motion brought Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Parliament. He was speaking before the Prime Minister's address to the House on the Manipur issue.

Chowdhury said that the violence in Manipur has "assumed a global dimension" and that is why the Prime Minister's intervention is indispensable. He also responded to Union Home Minister Amit Shah's "Quit India" call for corruption, saying that "Quit India must happen — from communalisation, from polarisation, from saffronisation."
