Lakshadweep: 7 Kerala MPs asked to produce a sponsor's declaration vouching for their good conduct

Seven Kerala MPs who had applied for entry permits to visit Lakshadweep have been asked to produce a sponsor’s declaration vouching for their good conduct and signed before a magistrate or notary.
The unusual condition set by the Lakshadweep administration is based on a rule meant solely for migrant labourers who come to work in the archipelago, and has been condemned by the MPs as “illogical” and a “breach of privilege”.

“I have never come across this kind of illogical stipulation. As we have already written to the Lok Sabha Speaker, this is a breach of privilege of a people’s representative,” A.M. Ariff, a CPM member and one of the seven MPs, told The Telegraph on Saturday.
