    RAJYA SABHA __________ ∗SYNOPSIS OF DEBATE _________ (Proceedings other than Questions and Answers) _________ Wednesday, March 10, 2010/Phalguna 19, 1931 (Saka) _________ MATTERS RAISED WITH PERMISSION OF THE CHAIR I. Revelations from a document of the World Bank on not to compel the Banks for financing any project in Arunachal Pradesh SHRI PRABHAT JHA: The way China is giving statements about Arunachal Pradesh seems to suggest as to whether we are not loosing our right over Arunachal Pradesh to claim that Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India? Of late, the Minister of External Affairs has stated that India will not pressurize World Bank in respect of any project related to Arunachal Pradesh. This is like surrendering before China and becoming helpless. The series of the incidents like objecting to the Prime Minister’s visit to Arunachal Pradesh by China, non receipt of A.D.B. loan for Arunachal Pradesh are making things further complicated. The Government should make its stand clear in this regard and should not surrender before any country. (Shri Ramdas Agarwal, Shri Vijaykumar Rupani, Shri Vinay Katiyar and Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad associated.) ___________________________________________________ ∗This Synopsis is not an authoritative record of the proceedings of the Rajya Sabha. 121 II. Situation which has arisen due to allegation of corruption involving the Government agency for the Haj pilgrimage arrangements SHRI MOINUL HASSAN: Haj Committee was formed by an act passed by the Parliament in 2002 but I am very sorry to say that it is a mismanaged and failed institution. Right from the year 2002 till 2010, there has been no full-fledged Haj Committee of India.

    RAJYA SABHA __________ ∗SYNOPSIS OF DEBATE __________ (Proceedings other than Questions and Answers) __________ Wednesday, December 16, 2009/ Agrahayana 25, 1931 (Saka) __________ MATTER RAISED WITH PERMISSION OF THE CHAIR Countrywide protests and demonstrations being staged by the Central Trade Unions SHRI TAPAN KUMAR SEN: All the trade unions in the country are holding protests, dharnas and demonstrations throughout the country against price rise and in action of the Government on the issue, against the distorted package of stimulus to the corporates and ongoing retrenchment of the workers in the name of recession. It is deplorable as to why the Government is benevolent in giving 4, 20,000 crore rupees concession to the big corporates in the name of tax forgone. They are refusing to spend only 70,000 crore rupees per annum to contain the price rise and also refusing to declare a ban on speculation on commodities which is basically responsible for this back-breaking price rise. If the Government does not act, the workers will be compelled to go for further action. I demand upon the Government, that the situation needs a complete reversal of the policy direction. Please, contain price rise, ban speculation in the commodities, universalize the public distribution system and ensure total implementation of the labour laws. ______________________________________________ ∗This Synopsis is not an authoritative record of the proceedings of the Rajya Sabha. 295 SHRI S.S. AHLUWALIA: The concerns of workers, particularly about price rise and out-sourcing of workers, privatization and merger need to be addressed urgently.
