After Lekhi denial, MEA clarifies on Hamas query
MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi clarified that a technical correction will be made to attribute the reply on the designation of Hamas to V Muraleedharan. Union minister Meenakshi Lekhi denied approving the answer and called for an inquiry. The question, asked by Congress MP Kumbakudi Sudhakaran, inquired about declaring Hamas a terrorist organization. The written answer mistakenly attributed to Lekhi, mentioned that the designation of an organization as a terrorist is covered under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. There are calls for investigation and accountability regarding the situation.
