New Delhi: The Rajya Sabha on Wednesday passed a motion for the formation of Joint Parliamentary Committee on chopper deal even as the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Trinamool Congress and the Janata Dal (United) walked out of the House opposing the motion. The Opposition punched holes into the government's arguments that it was serious about the truth and nailing the culprits by pointing out that till now only a preliminary enquiry has been ordered and no FIR has been filed. The motion was supported in the Rajya Sabha by the Congress and its allies including the Bahujan Samaj Party and the Samajwadi Party.
