to the Lieutenant Governor”.    He said that the report is with the LG and if he (Veeri) was serious, he should have approached the LG instead of indulging in theatrics.    He asserted that the National Conference remains committed to resolving the issue with fairness and every individual has the right to equal opportunity in jobs.   Meanwhile, Veeri stayed away from the Assembly proceedings on Thursday, a day after his remarks in the House.   Ruling party leaders backed the government’s position and downplayed his absence.
