Ruling Regarding Question Of Privilege With Regard To Shri Kirit … on 12 May, 2000<\/div>\n

Title: Ruling regarding question of privilege with regard to Shri Kirit Somaiya”s privilege notice against Shree Sundeep Maheswari, Executive Director, Enbee Plantations. <\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: With regard to Shri Kirit Somaiya\u2019s privilege notice, I have to inform the House that on 8th December, 1999, Shri Kirit Somaiya, Member of Parliament had given a notice of a question of privilege against Shri Sundeep Maheswari, Executive Director, Enbee Plantations alleging that Shri Maheshwari had cast aspersions on him in a Press interview as reported in The Lok Satta. According to Shri Somaiya, by levelling the allegations made by him in his speech in the House against Enbee Plantations as “arising out of business enmity” and “laughable”, Shri Maheshwari had cast aspersions on him and thereby committed a breach of privilege and contempt of the House. <\/p>\n

\tShri Sundeep Maheshwari who was asked to state what he had to say in the matter has since tendered a written unqualified apology to Shri Kirit Somaiya, Member of Parliament. <\/p>\n

\tIn view of the unqualified apology tendered by Shri Maheswari, I have decided to treat the matter as closed. <\/p>\n
