    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I think that Sen. Murkomen is misleading the House because Article 217(4) says that:- “Within sixty days after the Senate’s resolution is referred under clause (3), the National Assembly may consider the resolution, and vote to approve it, with or without amendments, or reject it.” Article 217(5) reads:- “(5) If the National Assembly – (a) does not vote on the resolution within sixty days, the resolution shall be regarded as having been approved by the National Assembly without amendment; or (b) votes on the resolution, the resolution shall have been- (i) amended only if at least two-thirds of the members of the Assembly vote in support of an amendment;” Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is very clear what will happen if we reject this. The resolution will be that we have rejected it. That resolution will go to the National Assembly and they have a right to approve or amend it. So, it is fair that when Sen. Murkomen is reading one section, he reads the other one as well."
