00:00Unless the motion has been admitted in both the houses, and where such motion has been
00:08admitted in both houses, the committee shall be constituted jointly by the Speaker and
00:16the Chairman.
00:17So since the provisions are different, I have directed the Secretary-General to update whether
00:26such a motion has also been moved in the house of the people, Honourable Law Minister, are
00:33you aware?
00:37Motion has been moved.
00:40In that case, since the Honourable Law Minister is present here, and has so indicated that
00:53a similar motion has come to be presented by requisite number of members of Parliament of
01:00Lok Sabha, requisite more than 100.
01:04More than 100, 152, I think.
01:06More than 100.
01:08To the Honourable Speaker, Lok Sabha, the provisions of rule, provisions of Section 3, Subsection
01:192, Proviso, will come into effect, and the Secretary-General will take necessary steps in this direction.
01:32Honourable Members, I need to inform you that in December, a motion under Article 124 was submitted
01:44for my consideration for the removal of a judge of the High Court of Allahabad.
01:52That motion was perpetrated from 55 members.
02:03I examined that and found that one particular member had signed at two places.
02:09The result was that the representation, the motion, indicated there are 55 members seeking
02:19removal, but actually it was not 55, it was only 54.
02:25So obviously an inquiry was conducted to find out from the member who had signed twice, allegedly,
02:34the Honourable Member declined his second signature, and that made the matter a little more serious.
02:45Because it was required of me then to get to the bottom of the issue and find out whether
02:55the representation was meriting consideration, and the process was initiated for verification of signatures
03:05and authentication.
03:08That process is under progress.
03:13I will get an update and come back to the House.
03:16I have already indicated to this August House on an earlier occasion that if the requisite number
03:25of members who verify their signatures and the number goes above 50 or more, I would proceed
03:37and deal with the issue of a signature that has been twice there and not owned by the member
03:48in a different manner.
03:52Because if a motion carries two signatures of the same member, and the Honourable Member declines
04:02that he has not signed at two places, but he has signed only at one place, the matter becomes
04:08serious and culpable.
04:12This August House has to set very high standards.
04:17If we do not live up to the highest expectations of the people, then we will be putting things
04:23under the carpet and not subjecting them to deep investigation.
04:27I will discuss with the floor leaders as to what steps this House needs to take with respect
04:38of such kinds of transgressions.
04:41I must also indicate to this August House that there was an occasion in this House where on
04:50seat number triple two, a pad of rupees five hundred notes was found.
04:59What is more surprising and deeply concerning is not that a pad of notes was found, but no one
05:10has owned it, no one has claimed it, this is quite serious.
05:18I had asked the authorities to get into the matter seriously, but it appears now that the
05:26matter will have to be dealt with, and that too I will put before the floor leaders for
05:33further consideration and guidance.
05:44Whatever the probes are the following, you can find, and I can find it.
05:51Now if you pew the figuring out, notice, and you can find the sugary roots.
05:52conoccin security?
05:53Yes.
05:55Thanks, doctor.
05:55Okay.
05:56I cut, catalogue.
05:57You have a fragmented question here.
05:58We need both for 2 years into context.
06:00From here, you have to reach out to a section official.
06:03What is going on about some of these questions?
06:06OK.
06:07You have to reach out to the level 2.
