Sudip Bandyopadhyay raises a Point of Order concerning allowing discussion on States’ law and order issues 

FULL TRANSCRIPT 

Let us come to a conclusion. I once raised the issue that State subjects like law and order  better not be allowed on the floor of the House. But three questions were allowed to be raised on the issue of law and order in Bengal on one day. I lodged a protest later before your office for clarification on why on the same day, the same question in different forms was allowed to be raised – concerning the law and order situation of a State. Therefore, if Bengal is being allowed, then why not UP is being allowed? We though boldly condemn the incident which happened in Uttar Pradesh.
