Assistant Ministers do not do much anyway – Biman Prasad

NFP Leader, Professor Biman Prasad has urged the Government to support the motion that the Standing Committee on Natural Resources review the performance of non-sugar agriculture and let the Standing Committee be chaired by their own Assistant Ministers who do not do much anyway.

Prasad says Assistant Ministers sit in the Standing Committees all the time.

Government Whip and Assistant Minister for Employment, Alvick Maharaj then said that it is disrespectful and pathetic for the NFP Leader to say that Assistant Ministers are not performing and not doing their job.
