A top Chinese diplomat, Wang Wenli, had earlier claimed that Bhutan had conveyed to Beijing through diplomatic channels that the area of the standoff belonged to China.

The MPs were charge-sheeted in the infamous 2005 cash-for-question scam for allegedly taking money to ask questions in Parliament. Special Judge Poonam Chaudhry said that charges for alleged offences of criminal conspiracy under IPC and under the provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act were prima facie made out against these former Parliamentarians, who were expelled in the wake of the scam.
Sharad Yadav today said the disintegration of the Grand Alliance has broken the trust of 11 crore people.
