Tytler urges Delhi Speaker to expunge remarks on 1984 riots

Congress leader Jagdish Tytler has written to the Delhi Assembly Speaker urging him to "expunge" remarks made against him during a discussion on 1984 anti-Sikh riots, saying the House had "exceeded" its brief.
In a letter to Speaker Ram Niwas Goel, Tytler claimed that names of "witnesses" mentioned during the discussion are of "doubtful integrity" and they are "proclaimed offenders".
"The personal reference against a person who is neither present during the said discussions nor a member of the Assembly is also against the conduct Rules of the Legislative Assembly of NCT of Delhi," the letter said.
The Assembly had on June 30 last year passed a resolution seeking justice to the victims of the riots and action against Tytler for allegedly influencing a witness in a case relating to it.
