SEDITION AND KRISHNA BALLABH SAHAY (12/05/2022)

KRISHNA BALLABH SAHAY DELIVERING A PUBLIC SPEECH

“.........I shall show to my hon’ble friend Mr Naimul Haq when the occasion comes that I am a greater seditionist, but my field of activity will not be the floor of this House. I shall preach sedition outside. You have to take risks whereas here in the House you are protected by law.

Sir, it is cowardly to create hatred under the protection of the law when we know that we are in a privileged position as a member of this House and will not be hauled up before a Court of law.  I do not think it will be any bar to criticise any government in power, whether it is the Congress Government or a Government of Mr Chandreshwar Prasad Narayan Sinha. 

If I am in Opposition and another Government is in power, I depend upon public opinion and the rectitude of the Chair.  I repeat that if I have to preach sedition, I shall go outside and preach sedition. That will be by taking the risk and not by occupying a seat in the Opposition enjoying the privilege as a member of this House.
