New Delhi: The perpetual absence of Union Minister for Chemicals and Fertilizers, M K Alagiri from the parliament is turning into a big embarrassment for the UPA government.
It is learnt that Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar has now told the Union Minister that he should attend parliament. She has also offered to provide Tamil interpreters if language was a problem.
"I have asked Alagiri to come and attend the parliament session, I have told him that we will solve his problem," Meira Kumar told reporters.
Alagiri had cited his official tours abroad and his inability to respond in English as an excuse for his absence from the Parliament.
The Opposition had earlier made it an issue in Parliament saying a minister can't always be missing from the House.
