Those rejected by people trying to control Parliament: Modi

New Delhi, Nov 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday criticised the opposition, saying those rejected by people 80-90 times were trying to control Parliament by resorting to hooliganism for their own political gains.

Addressing reporters ahead of the Winter Session of Parliament, Modi said that the main objective of the Opposition parties seems to be hindering the functioning of Parliament rather than contributing to its progress.

“The last phase of 2024 is underway and the country is preparing for 2025. This Session of Parliament is special in several ways and the most important thing is the beginning of the 75th year of the Constitution. Tomorrow, in the Samvidhan Sadan, everyone will celebrate the 75th year of our Constitution,” he said.

“While preparing the Constitution, the makers discussed each and every point in great detail and only then have we received such an excellent constitution. An important part of this is also our Parliament and our MPs. There should be healthy discussions in the Parliament and more and more people should contribute in the discussions,” he said.

PM Modi further said, “Unfortunately, some people, who have been rejected by the public, are constantly trying to control the parliament for their own political interests through the hooliganism of the people. The public counts all their activities and punishes them when the time comes.”

“The most important thing is that the new members of parliament who come with new ideas and energy are usurped by some people. They do not even get the opportunity to speak in the Parliament. In the democratic tradition, the job of every member is to prepare the next members, but those who have been rejected by the people 80- 90 times, do not allow any discussion in the Parliament, do not respect the sentiments of democracy, do not understand the importance of people’s expectations,” said Modi.
