he protest by Opposition MPs continued when the House resumed sitting. Citing rules, Bhupendra Yadav, senior minister, claimed that the Chairman of the JPC had the right to delete if any member was found using unparliamentary words while speaking during the meeting of the JPC.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, who is also Minority Affairs Minister, maintained that the dissent notes given by members had not been removed and these could be found in the appendix of the report.
Congress member Naseer Hussain said Rijiju was not telling the truth and added that a comprehensive dissent note given by him, complete with an introduction and a conclusion, had not been included in the report.
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, Leader of the Opposition, urged the Chairman to put the report on hold and table in the House later after including all dissent notes.
