"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, two wrongs do not make a right and I must state that clearly. Those families walked from somewhere into that forest and I doubt whether they came by lorries. I doubt too whether those children, ladies and the old people were carried into the forest by lorries. The records that we have show that many of those people invaded the forest after the post- election violence and they are the ones we are evicting right now. All I am saying is that two wrongs do not make a right. I am not saying that we are not aware that children have to walk out of the forest. In fact, we do not have roads in many forests. So, the only option left is to walk. Children who cannot walk can be carried and some of our officers have done that. How did those people come in having children and now that we are saying they get out, they cannot? It is not our responsibility to send a helicopter to pick children. That is not possible."
