The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) on Tuesday, kept Mamata Banerjee in a suspense over whether they would support the no confidence motion that the Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief plans to bring in the winter session of the Parliament.
The NDA while said that they would move a resolution under voting provisions also did not rule out the possibility of supporting the no confidence motion against the government. ‘The NDA will move a resolution under voting provisions seeking to disapprove the government’s decision and urging the government to withdraw the decision,’ said BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad, while laying out the stand taken by the NDA. Leaders of NDA, met on Tuesday to finalise its strategy in the winter session of Parliament, where they appealed that all political parties which extended support to the nation-wide bandh against the government’s FDI decision, should support the resolution.
‘This government has failed on all the fronts and the time has come for it go, the NDA would consult all political parties to explore the possibility of a no-confidence motion against the government,’ said Prasad.
One the reasons for NDA’s reluctance for going ahead with the no confidence motion is that if the motion is defeated it would give legitimacy to all government decision, whereas if the government fails to find enough support in the resolution under voting it would give enough arsenal to the opposition to embarrass the government repeatedly.
The NDA also criticised the government for violating the assurance given in Parliament that it will keep in abeyance the decision on FDI till a consensus is arrived at in consultation with all political parties and states.
