एन चर्चा 13 : संसद में बिना बहस के वित्त विधेयक और बजट पास होना चिंताजनक है
लोकसभा द्वारा बिना किसी चर्चा के वित्त विधेयक पास किया गया. इसका महत्व समझने के लिए संसदीय मामलों के जानकार मेघनाद न्यूज़लॉन्ड्री चर्चा में फोनलाइन पर जुड़े. उन्होंने बताया कि वित्त विधेयक और देश के बजट को बिना बहस के पास किए जाना इसलिए भी चिंता का विषय है कि सांसद जिस काम के लिए चुने जाते हैं, वो अपना काम ईमानदारी से नहीं कर रहे हैं. 2013 और 2003 में भी ऐसा हो चुका है.
