{ NO-CONFIDENCE DEBATE} UNION MINISTER

- 

NEW DELHI: Hitting out at the new INDIA alliance, civil aviation minister and senior BJP leader Jyotiraditya Scindia said on Thursday that the Opposition is misusing the violence in Manipur to create a "launchpad for itself".

Participating in the debate on the no-confidence motion in the Lok Sabha, Scindia echoed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's charge that the new alliance is seeped in arrogance. Scindia said the alliance is an arrogant bloc that got together in "its greed for power but have differences within themselves".

"I dot, N dot, D dot, I dot, A, is misusing the Manipur issue as a launchpad for itself. The situation that arose in view of the no-confidence motion is not about Manipur but about reaping political gains from the situation for them," Scindia told the Lok Sabha.
