00:00Most of our cities, major cities, are living under a blanket of poisonous air.
00:09Millions of children are getting lung disease, their future is being destroyed,
00:15people are getting cancer, older people are struggling to breathe.
00:20This is a interesting issue because I am certain that there will be full agreement between the government and us on this issue.
00:33This is not a, you know, this is not a ideological issue, this is, everybody in this house would agree that air pollution,
00:43the damage it is doing to our people, is something that we would like to cooperate on.
00:50I think it's important that the government develops a plan for how to get rid of air pollution in our cities.
01:00We are more than happy to cooperate with the government on developing such a plan.
01:09There are not many issues these days that the government and the opposition, entire opposition can agree on.
01:17And I think it's a very good, good idea that we have at least one…
01:21You are rightly said, but during Euro hour…
01:23Sir, let me finish.
01:23I think so, there is a time constraint.
01:25If you want to bring some resolution under any appropriate law, the speaker will allow for a debate for the, I think…
01:31Let me just, let me just kindly make it brief.
01:33Let me just, let me just kindly make it brief.
01:33Please.
01:34So, I think, I think this is an issue where, you know, everybody says, government, opposition, fighting all the time.
01:41This is one issue where we can show the country that we can also plan and work together to solve something that is critical.
01:52I think the government should have a discussion in parliament.
01:56We should all have a discussion in parliament.
01:57And, and we should try, we should try and not make it a discussion where we are abusing you and you are abusing us.
02:09I think we should make it a discussion where we are participating, we are showing the country that on this fundamental issue there is agreement.
02:18And the best minds are going to be put into place to solve this issue.
02:23Thank you.
02:24I think, I think it would be good if we have a discussion, detailed discussion, and then the prime minister puts in place a plan for each city, methodical, systematic plan on how within the next five or ten years,
02:41maybe we cannot resolve the problem, but how we are going to impact the problem and make, make life for our people easier.
02:50Leader of the Opposition, Raul Gandhiji has made a statement in the form of suggestion.
02:57The member of the Congress party in the Business Advisory Committee had also raised this issue and some other parties and from the government side also.
03:06And government from the day one had made our position very clear that on all important matters, government is ready to discuss and also to find out a solution,
03:18taking along the suggestions from all the members, including the principal opposition party led by Raul Gandhiji.
03:25So, the matter was placed in the Business Advisory Committee.
03:28As we had discussed about the election reforms, including the Special Intensive Division, under the, you know, various laws, various rules,
03:41we will see how we will take up this discussion.
03:44But, please, the matter was brought in the basis.
03:49If he is responding during zero hour, you can understand.
03:52Government is ready to discuss.
03:54Then you can understand.
03:55Government is always prepared to have discussion under any rule.
04:04But only what the point I want to make is since the matter was brought in the BAC,
04:08we will come back and let us see how we can structure the discussion into and then we are ready to take up this matter.
