BJP's Sushil Modi slams Bihar CM for skipping all-party meeting on G20

The BJP on Tuesday slammed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for skipping the all-party meeting convened by the Centre to solicit suggestions for the G20 summit which will be held in India next year. Kumar's decision to "boycott" the all-party meeting in the national capital on Monday, is "against the government's protocols", senior BJP leader and Bihar's former deputy chief minister Sushil Kumar Modi said in a video statement. "Since Kumar ditched the BJP and the PM twice in the past and joined hands with the 'grand alliance', he (Kumar) could not muster the courage to face the PM or attend the all-party meet," the BJP leader said. Even JD(U) president Rajiv Ranjan Singh, popularly known as Lalan Singh, did not attend the PM's meeting, he said. Now the CM must clarify whether he will attend meetings of the engagement groups of G-20 scheduled to be held in Patna in March or not," Sushil Kumar Modi said. The BJP leader also asked, "As per protocol, the CM should receive the PM at

Issue of freebies serious, why can't Centre call for all-party meeting: SC

The Supreme Court on Wednesday said there must be a "debate" on the "serious" issue relating to the practice of political parties promising freebies and asked why cannot the Centre call for an all-party meeting on it. The apex court said until and unless there is a unanimous decision among political parties that freebies are going to destroy the economy and have to be stopped, nothing can happen as it is only political parties that would make such promises and contest elections and not individuals. ".Why do not the Government of India call for an all-party meeting?" the top court said. "There must be a debate. The issue is serious, there is no doubt about it. The question is, why do not all political parties meet and the Government of India can call for a meeting," it observed. The observations by a bench comprising Chief Justice N V Ramana and Justices Hima Kohli and C T Ravikumar came while it was deliberating on a plea opposing promises of such handouts by the parties during ...
