• 3 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in his answer, the Assistant Minister said that the Government is conducting security operations to flush out aliens, more specifically those ones who are not registered as refugees. Could he tell the House how many such aliens have been arrested and what action the Government has taken so far? view
• 2 Jan 2013 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Minister confirm that the increase in the killing of wildlife is as a result of lack of compensation or low compensation given to the people who are either killed or injured by wildlife? view
