“Adopt German model of no-confidence motion”

CHENNAI: Former Governor of Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu P.C. Alexander has called for the German model of no-confidence motion to be adopted in India to improve the system of coalition government.

Under the German model, whenever a no-confidence motion is tabled in Parliament against the government, it should be accompanied by a confidence motion in support of an alternative formation.

If the notice for the confidence motion is not submitted, the no-confidence motion will not be taken up, he said, addressing members of the Rotary Club of Madras on Tuesday.
