However, I may assure the House that we are inclined to vote in favour of the Resolution,” he said, repeating his statement in Lok Sabha on Monday.The amendments were defeated with 84 of the 94 members present voting for the government as members from the Left and NDA walked out. The DMK members, including Kanimozhi, who were present in the house earlier made themselves absent during the voting.
