Prime Minister Narendra Modi making a statement on the Manipur situation outside Parliament when it is in session is a violation of privilege and convention, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said on Thursday, demanding the PM speak on the issue inside the Houses.
He said he also intends to move a notice demanding the prime minister make a statement inside Parliament.
"By doing so (making a statement outside Parliament), he has disregarded the privilege of Parliament and has acted against Parliamentary conventions of giving statements inside the House when the Parliament is in session,” Kharge said.
