Kiran Bedi won't say sorry for remarks against MPs
The former IPS officer said she has received a breach-of-privilege notice for her remarks against parliamentarians but remained adamant that she will not apologise.
Team Anna member and former IPS officer Kiran Bedi today said she has received breach of privilege notice for her remarks against Parliamentarians but remained adamant that she will not "apologise"."Received Breach of Privilege. Shall respond appropriately recording the distrust 'we the people' were suffering," Bedi tweeted this evening. Earlier in the day, she told reporters that she will not "apologise" for her remarks against politicians, but intends to show a "bigger mirror" to the House on the conduct of lawmakers."If I get a notice, I would say I am sorry I will not be able to say sorry. If I get an opportunity I will go before the Committee and will show a bigger mirror to Parliament," she said."Earlier in Rajasthan Assembly, slippers were exchanged. If I get an opportunity I will show a bigger mirror what the common man wants to show," she said. She said whatever she had said was in reference to a situation, where it was needed to be said. "The truth has to be said. I didn't have any other option as we didn't know whether we would have a resolution," she said.The privilege notice against Bedi came as she accused politicians of wearing "several masks" at the same time, drawing the ire of MPs from both houses.
