State Minister for Parliamentary Affairs M B Rajesh, speaking on behalf of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, said that the adjournment notice’ contents were similar to the notices moved on the last two days of the House.
He contended that the opposition’s intention behind moving the notice was to create a “political smokescreen” and raise in the Assembly the “wrong propaganda being spread through the media outside the House”.
“We will discuss the issue raised in the notice to reveal the opposition’s true intentions,” he said.
